“Jealous of the Birds has a knack for slicing up genres and making music that sounds homemade and tiny, but also explosive and bombastic” – NPR
Hailed by NPR for her “remarkable gift for converting spare and common ingredients into a sound that’s dense, gently hypnotic and utterly her own,” Naomi Hamilton has recorded and toured as Jealous of the Birds since 2015, earning worldwide critical applause for her intimate lyricism and a dynamic musical approach.
Born in Portadown, Armagh, but based now in Belfast, Hamilton first lifted the curtain on Jealous of the Birds’ intensely introspective songcraft with 2015’s Capricorn EP, followed the next year by her acclaimed full-length independent debut, Parma Violets. The album “shatters any preconceived notions,” raved The Irish Times.
“Parma Violets progresses from whimsical folk-pop to atmospheric indie post-punk of real substance… Hamilton rises to the occasion time and time again.”
