The Bird and the Bee Sides is a double EP by the American band Relient K. In the United States it was released on July 1, 2008.[7]

The double EP was released on a single disc, containing both The Nashville Tennis EP and The Bird and the Bee Sides.

The Nashville Tennis EP (whose title is a pun on Nashville, Tennessee) includes 13 tracks of new material that allowed the band to explore their sound by channeling country and ska influences, as well as feature compositions by band members other than Thiessen and Hoopes.

The Bird and the Bee Sides is a collection of rarities or unreleased demos from earlier in the band's career.[8][9]

The collection debuted at No. 25 on the Billboard 200 with approximately 20,000 albums sold.[10]
