Good news for you Bird-brains! Andrew Bird is bringing back his intimate and mostly instrumental Gezelligheid shows back to Chicago this winter!

UPDATE: Well, the 12/16 and 12/17 shows sold out rather quickly. But good news! Bird has added a additional Gezelligheid on Wednesday, December 15. Tickets will go on sale to the public this Saturday, October 2, at 10:00 a.m. the Vic Theatre Box Office and through Etix.com and are $35-40. Set your alarm clock!

After last year’s successful three night run at the Fourth Presbyterian Church last December, Bird is not only bringing the Gezelligheid, which is dutch for coziness, shows back to Chicago, but will also do similar gigs in Washington D.C. and Boston. The shows, like last year, will feature Bird playing solo through his trademark horn speakers with ambient light sources while he builds loop after loop.

The Chicago edition of the Gezelligheid shows will be December 16 & 17 at the Fourth Presbyterian Church, located at 126 East Chestnut St., just like last time. Tickets go on sale this Saturday, September 25, at 10:00 a.m. the Vic Theatre Box Office and through Etix.com and are $35-40.
