Babybird Tickets

Babybird is an odd one, deceptively sweet and cute in name, but happily for Stephen Jones, it hides something darker growing inside the fluff.

Imagine the David Lynch Blue Velvet mechanical bird. Musical life started with the mid-90s with his lo-fi years, consisting of five Stephen Jones solo albums I WAS BORN A MAN through to DYING HAPPY – a life cycle, released in a nine month period.

This already, set him apart from the indie Britpop world. Then an album and single went gold, Stephen was hounded and heckled out of Manchester for being that ‘bleeding gorgeous bloke’, to settle in London, and four band studio albums followed.

After many TV shows and world tours, including 6 or 7 appearances on TFI Friday and playing Top Of The Pops three times, Babybird released 9 top 40 hits, a gold single and album. Then with the recent help of Johnny Depp Stephen recorded two albums in LA, Johnny playing guitar on both, then going onto direct the video 'UNLOVEABLE'.

His song 'THE F-WORD' has featured on 13 series of the Gordon Ramsey show. He has had music featured on DomJoly’s Trigger Happy, Vic and Bob shows, and recently on Paul and Bob’s Gone Fishing show. Stephen consequently went onto remain friends with Paul, drawn together with their health issues.

Six years ago Stephen had a heart attack whilst releasing over 150 albums on the phenomenal site that is Bandcamp, giving him complete freedom outside of the music business, to persist and meddle. Most recently a Babybird song featured on the Margot Robbie produced movie Saltburn.

It cannot be stressed enough, how extremely unusual this all is.
