good flying birds


good flying birds is a noisy pop guitar group from the midwest USA. their debut album “talulah’s tape” was originally released in january 2025 on st. louis DIY rotten apple. instantly selling hundreds of tapes and buzzing across online blogs, the band was picked up by Carpark Records and Smoking Room Records, who co-released a revamped “talulah’s tape” in october 2025. the album was met with critical acclaim from rolling stone, pitchfork, paste, allmusic, etc. and the band has been touring heavily since. their sound is marked by the wide-eyed spark of innocent love and gentle boy-girl dual vocals, carried by ripping guitars and spastic drums. somewhere between the lofi rock and roll of guided by voices and abrasive jangle of early mbv, with intricate riffs and passages that have earned an occasional “midwest emo” tag. Susie Slaughter (vocals/tambo), Kellen Baker (vocals/guitar), Luke Corvette (bass), and Ari Bales (drums), make up the live group, a tour de force of whirling pop attack that leans looser and fuzzier than the recordings. whether it be in a dank basement or a well-lit stage, they are a must see group in 2026.
