John Brodeur’s alter ego, Bird Streets, is where confessional singer-songwriter grit meets power-pop sparkle. Praised for his knack for pairing bittersweet lyrics with melodies that refuse to leave your head, Bird Streets crafts songs that feel both intimate and widescreen. On Play On: A Raspberries Tribute, he takes on “I Reach for the Light,” delivering it with a mix of yearning and uplift that makes it feel like a lost classic.
