Andrew Bird’s latest album, Are You Serious, is set to be released on April 1. Having recently shared “Capsized”, Bird has followed that up with “Left Handed Kisses“, his collaboration with Fiona Apple. A swaying, folky duet, “Left Handed Kisses” has the pair trading off lines as a couple who were once in love. Apple sounds skeptical as Bird pines for her to come back over swelling strings and a warm acoustic guitar.
