With a distinctive sound that resists categorization, Grammy Award-nominated violinist, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Andrew Bird makes his debut with the San Francisco Symphony. Balancing swelling sounds with jazz, folk, and pop melodies in an unforgettable display of virtuosity, Bird celebrates the 20th anniversary of his acclaimed record The Mysterious Production of Eggs. Featuring a top-to-bottom album performance with orchestral arrangements, Bird caps off the performance with a suite of fan-favorite tunes from his near 30-year repertoire.

Classically inspired, violin-wielding songwriter Andrew Bird comes to Frost with a new record, Inside Problems, in tow. In the words of Esquire, "He is the only performer who has lit up both Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo with a combination of vocals, violin, guitar, glockenspiel and whistling ... he uses centuries-old instrumentation to give depth and soul to folk rock." Through the power of looping, he creates a tangled and orchestral sound with just a few on-stage elements.
