An Emilian band centered around Davide Borghi; later works presented as a trio with Carlo Baja Guarienti (keyboards, flute) and Stefano Romagnoli (samples, soundscapes).

I Passi di Liù was released in 2008 and is described in reviews as a mature, genre-fusing work; Le Fiabe dei Ragni Funamboli was released in 2013 as a double album (Fiabe di Rugiada in Italian and Fiabe di Vento in Val d'Asta dialect). Reviews note themes of nostalgia, childhood and nature and recurring criticisms about mixing clarity.

Two DeBaser reviews praise Albireon's atmospheric blend of neo-folk, ambient and post-rock. I Passi di Liù (2008) is described as a masterpiece and emotional high point. Le Fiabe dei Ragni Funamboli (2013) is seen as a return to essentials with strong songwriting. Both reviews note recurring issues with mixing that sometimes obscure the lyrics.

For:Listeners of neo-folk, ambient and post-rock; fans of poetic, nostalgic songwriting.

 "Liù sleeps A smile of pain contracts the mouth And hands lie fallen like little birds from the nest Liù sleeps And outside a pale sun on the forest trees With soft and warm light in the hour of sunset And beyond the rippled golden edges of the clouds Fragments of thoughts and a premature thaw"
