“The Nightbirds craft a sound that feels like velvet thunder—smooth, enveloping, and impossible to ignore—drawing audiences in until they’re not just listening, but glowing with it. By the final note, the crowd isn’t merely applauding; they’re buzzing like they’ve all been let in on a beautiful secret.”

Nightbirds emerged out of the shared experience of newfound motherhood. Each of the three members recognized their precious free moments after the little ones were put to bed, when creative musings could finally be explored. The powerful new chapters in their lives called for a deeper well of expression. The band’s collective sound is poignant, yet it evokes a sense of innocence, a quality inspired by their children.

Jade Hendrix brings her soulful vocals and insightful songwriting to the ensemble. Instrumentalists Sam ‘n Ash (an established folk duo comprising of accordion and mandolin) complement Jade’s crooning with their inventive melodies and creative arrangements. The trio fuses classic folk themes with expressive vocals, resulting in a unique and compelling blend that audiences have described as folk with soul.
