Formed in 2022 and hailing from Milford, Michigan, FUNDERBIRD delivers an intense blend of ‘90s-inspired, heart-on-your-sleeve post-punk from three Gen-X survivors who know how to channel raw emotion into powerful sound.
Featuring Greg Koenig (bass/vocals), Eric Carlsen (guitar), and Adam Wilson (drums/backing vocals), FUNDERBIRD began as a fun experiment between friends learning grunge covers—but it didn’t take long for that spark to evolve into something much bigger. What started as casual jam sessions quickly transformed into writing original music, hitting stages across Southeast Michigan, and carving out their own place in the local music scene.
Their debut full-length album, Let It Kill You, released April 1, 2026, showcases their signature energy and authentic post-punk edge. The album is available now on all major streaming platforms and for purchase on Bandcamp.
Beyond the music, FUNDERBIRD is deeply committed to strengthening their hometown scene. The band has played an active role in helping River’s Edge Brewery in Milford develop “The Warehouse,” a thriving DIY venue space that has become a hub for live music and community connection, hosting shows for up to 300 people.
FUNDERBIRD isn’t just making music—they’re helping build a movement. Keep your eyes on this Milford powerhouse as they continue to amplify Michigan’s independent music scene.
