Attention Bird Utopia

An Odyssey Sound Session with Attention Bird Utopia, the collaborative project of Harrison Whitford and Eli Hirsch. On their debut album, Best of Kings, the duo show off their songwriting mastery and clever instrumentation.

Attention Bird Utopia began when Eli Hirsch (Suki Waterhouse, Cautious Clay, Say Lou Lou) was executive producing Suki Waterhouse's 2024 LP Memoir of A Sparklemuffin at his studio in Los Angeles, and Harrison Whitford (Phoebe Bridgers, Matt Berninger, Conor Oberst) dropped in on an afternoon recording session. The two hit it off, bonding over their love of similar music. In this episode they discuss their two personal playlists, featuring Jackson Browne, Elliott Smith and Jimi Hendrix.

Listen to Attention Bird Utopia's playlist on Spotify or Apple Music.
