Birdy made an all too welcome return to the pop world a couple of weeks ago with sublime mid-tempo ballad “Wings”. The song showcases the 17-year-old’s powerful pipes and newly discovered pop sensibility perfectly — ramping the anticipation for sophomore set Fire Within.
Only the album never got an official US release date and now we know why. The British songbird is taking a different approach in America. We get an EP called Breathe on September 24, followed by the album in Spring 2014. (Let’s pray for bonus tracks!) See the EP’s tracklist and a gorgeous live performance of “Wings” after the jump.
