Beautiful Buildings play harmony-driven indie folk rock with soulful sensibility. Their songs invite you into a bittersweet reverie with originality and lyrical imagery. Throughout their live set, you may hear a carefully selected cover or two by some of their favourite artists including Iron & Wine, Neil Young and Townes Van Zandt, among others.

"Sweet, soulful melodies...fast being added to the favourites list of folks-in-the-know...the iMac-iPod crowd is swooning...pour a cup of vanilla rooibos, click play, and take flight." - FLARE﻿
