Inspired by the three-part harmonies my new band seems to be able to pull off nicely, I set about writing something nice and "byrdsy" for us to do and this was what I came up with. Lots of 330/12 for us Rickenbacker fans on this one

Birdsey indeed! Love those harmonies; nice job guys!
Just a technical observation - the lead vocal sounds like it could have benefitted from a little more compression in the mix. Maybe the bass could have come up in the mix, too, but then again, it could be the fault of the headphones I'm listening through. I like the backwards lead section, too.

Thanks for listening, Mark. You're right about the mix. The lead vocal is up and down and on a "proper version", I would have afforded it more attention but it was mainly just a quick demo for the band.
Those "guys" singing are all me.

The band itself hasn't performed it yet. Just sharing internal band ideas with the forum I suppose.
