British singer-songwriter Jade Bird got her start as a teenager playing blues and folk clubs around London. Over the past few years, she's toured Europe and the United States several times and was one of the first artists chosen for NPR's Slingshot program.

Her debut album was released in April and is filled with songs of heartbreak and resilience. She was in town recently, sharing a bill with Jason Isbell and Father John Misty. Check out this exclusive video of Bird in the WUNC Music studios.
