Love Songs With Danny Painter

The World of Birds came to life in 2019 when the McCarthy brothers, Conor (Producer) and Ben (Producer), linked up with Nic Preen (Songwriter) to form the band behind the launch of Preen’s solo career. However, the collaboration took them on a different path. Not long into their work together, the decision was made to merge as a band, launching The World of Birds. Almost immediately, they set out on a tour away from their home base in Cape Town, locally in South Africa and in Europe, opening for Beatenberg and A-Ha, as well as listing on the Triple J and Apple Music’s Today at Apple playlist. I got to chat to lead singer Nic Preen about the band, lockdown, and everything in between!
