The Bird and the Bee are an LA duo consisting of Inara George (the daughter of Little Feet's Lowell George, for those who can remember them) and Greg Kurstin. This song "Again & Again" was from their self titled debut album released in 2007 on Bluenote. They remind me of Kiwi band 'The Brunettes' in a lot of ways..... they have the same retro style and sound that could be described as twee, although very sophisticated.... or even space age bachelor. I hope you are following where I'm going with this? Anyway, whether it makes sense or not, the music itself makes a lot of sense. They do seem to have the ex factor as a duo and we are going to see and hear a lot more from them in the future, either together or in other projects. In fact, Inara George has recently released some solo material and Greg Kurstin produced and co-wrote Lily Allen's "It's Not Me, It's You' album and has worked with so many artists, the list is endless. So look out for them over the next few years.... again and again and again and again.
