PHLOEM presents: Death Of A Bird
In the midst of a hectic life, grief can be a wake-up call.
“When a bird dies in the forest, all is still.” Yet something irreversible has happened.

Death of a Bird unfolds across five songs as a conversation between a Woman and Death, personified.
Death is not a villain here. Nor a savior. Death is a presence — steady, curious, sometimes unsettling, sometimes tender. The Woman resists, questions, challenges.
Across five chapters, the Woman and Death learn how to walk together. Then run. Then, eventually, dance.

The central question is not how to escape death — but how to coexist with it.
How can we remain driven without being devoured by urgency?
How can we pursue ambition without abandoning stillness?
How can we hold chaos and peace in the same body?
