- Desert Island Cloud Sidney Bird: Rising Southwestern Pop Star Releases New Album Desert Person

Sidney Bird is quickly becoming the southwestern sensation to watch, making waves in Arizona with her unique blend of “cactus pop.” Standing confidently among western pop icons like Kacey Musgraves and Leon Bridges, she also brings a fresh indie pop twist reminiscent of Maggie Rogers and Noah Kahan.

Bird’s journey is nothing short of impressive. She’s shared the stage with the likes of Natasha Bedingfield, Hans Williams, and Quarters of Change, and just recently, she performed alongside country star Dierks Bentley in Scottsdale, captivating a crowd of 10,000. Her songwriting skills shine too—she co-wrote fan favorites “Bad Timing” and “Wild” with indie darling Noah Kahan.

Her latest album, desert person, is a 10-track masterpiece of cactus pop, exploring the many faces of relationships. From friendships to family ties, love, and even the relationship we have with ourselves, Sidney Bird’s sound is as expansive as the desert she calls home.
