Redbird (Signature Sounds, 2005) is the sole album from the folk ensemble of the same name, bringing together singer-songwriters Jeffrey Foucault, Kris Delmhorst, and Peter Mulvey — three artists with deep roots in the New England acoustic scene who were all signed to Signature Sounds at the time of recording. David Goodrich contributes slide guitar, mandolin, and papoose guitar in a supporting instrumental role. The album blends original compositions with carefully chosen covers, anchored by the three writers' individual voices and a collective sensibility attuned to the quiet depths of American folk and country music. The collaboration was a one-time studio project rather than an ongoing band, though all three principals maintained active solo careers and continued to surface periodically in each other's work.
