The State of Things

Birds & Arrows

WUNC | By Frank Stasio,

Published May 6, 2011 at 12:02 PM EDT

The Chapel Hill-based band Birds & Arrows has a new album that reflects the joy and sorrow of the band's past year. The honeymoon sweetness of their earlier work has been replaced with a maturity and depth appropriate for musicians whose lives and work are gaining seriousness and acclaim.
