Birds of Passage

Birds of Passage is an experimental music project of poet and singer-songwriter Alicia Merz from Eureka, Waikato, New Zealand formed in 2009. For someone who thinks it’s difficult to describe music in general it’s even more difficult to describe the soundscapes of Birds of Passage. The influences of Alicia Merz - the girl behind Birds of Passage - are her memories, breathless-inspiring cold winds, the smell and atmosphere of a spring day, smoking cigarettes, sunshine and shadows.
