These 13 is a collaborative studio album by American musicians Jimbo Mathus and Andrew Bird. It was released on March 5, 2021, through Thirty Tigers. Recording sessions took place at Hollywood Sound Recorders in Los Angeles and at Barebones Studios. Production was handled by Mike Viola.

Mathus and Bird had previously played together in the band Squirrel Nut Zippers in the 1990s; These 13 marks their first collaboration as a duo.
