March 17th, 2017 will be released the  BYRDI ' second album  " Urkraft ". Nash Rothanburg comments :  "Ansur - Urkaft" is an album with a wider variety of expressions, not only the album as whole, but also within each song. You may sit down in a meadow and listen to an old fairytale-like song where the message is "listen to the old people, they know what they are talking about", and another song will make you stand in the sunset, in awe, and listen to the song of the night to come. You may also find songs making you want to pack your knapsack and head for the mountains. "Ansur - Ukraft" just feels more like living, where you have ups and downs, meet new people and focus on your life on a slightly different angle than before.

This is the artwork for "Urkraft", the new album signed  BYRDI  coming out next year. Nash Rothanburg of BYRDI comments, “the painting depicts a sunset in Vassfaret, an unbelievably beautiful forest and mountain area rich with history and culture. Heidi is a very skilled local artist, and knowing that the portrait is from the very same place where major parts of the album were written, we instantly knew that’s a connection we simply could not ignore. A marvelous painting that matches the intention of our music very well." So far no release date is set for “Ansur : Urkraft”, but more information shall be available in early 2017

BYRDI  are currently recording their next record that will be a full length entited "Urkraft". More news will be later on.
