About The Mutton Birds

The Mutton Birds were one of New Zealand's most acclaimed bands of the 1990s, built around the songwriting of Don McGlashan. Their literate, melodic alt-rock captured the texture of Kiwi life in songs like Dominion Road and the beloved singalong Anchor Me. McGlashan's storytelling and warm baritone made the band critical favorites, and their music remains a touchstone of the country's guitar-pop tradition.
