Seabird is an American alternative rock band from Independence, Kentucky. The band formed when Aaron Morgan, Micah Landers, and Aaron Hunt began playing songs with each other in 2004. The band soon added accordion player David Smith. After playing together for a little under a year both Landers and Smith left to pursue other interests. Soon after Chris Kubik joined the band to take the place of Landers on bass and Morgan began playing two keyboards to make up for the loss of the accordion. After adding Morgan's brother (Ryan) to play guitar, the band recorded their debut EP, Spread Your Broken Wings and Try, in one of the band members' rooms.
Born Sandy Devotional is an album by The Triffids, released in March 1986. All the songs on the album were written by David McComb. The album was recorded at Mark Angelo Studios in London in August 1985 with Gil Norton co-producing with the band, and mixed at Amazon Studios in Liverpool in September 1985. The cover photo shows Mandurah, Western Australia — now a large urban centre — as it appeared in 1961.
When we finished Born Sandy Devotional I knew it was the best thing we’d ever done, there was no question about it. The writing was much more autobiographical than anything I’d done before, I felt quite close to the subject matter. I found myself almost following the idea of fidelity as a complete all-consuming faith, to give you some sort of direction or something.
And ‘Born Sandy Devotional’? It was the name of a song which didn’t make it onto the record which is about someone called Sandy ... I like titles like those, they’re just a law unto themselves and they have a feeling unto themselves.
Born Sandy Devotional is the culmination of our efforts trying to capture our more considered lyrical approach with a physical intensity ... well not really, but that will have to do. David McComb -
Seabird is a 1948 book for children and young people, written and illustrated by Holling Clancy Holling.

The SV Sea Bird or Seabird was a merchant brig under the command of John Huxham. In 1750 or 1760 the ship grounded herself at Easton's Beach, Rhode Island. Her longboat was missing, and she had been returning from a voyage to Honduras and was expected in Newport that day. The ship was apparently abandoned in sight of land and drifted off course. The only living things found on the ship were a dog and a cat. One week after the Sea Bird arrived, it vanished, and like its crew the Sea Bird was never seen again. A fictional account of how she became derelict appeared in the Wilmington, Delaware, Sunday Morning Star for October 11, 1885.
The Seabird Half Rater is the oldest one design class still sailing in Britain. It is a 20 ft carvel planked sailing boat, with a design dating back to 1898. As of the 2017 season there have been 101 built [up to No.108]. The class has a Portsmouth Yardstick of 1100.
USS Sea Bird (1863) was a captured Confederate schooner acquired by the Union Navy from the prize court during the American Civil War.
