VELOURA - ((New Teaser Up Now!))

About Me



Veloura - "The Faker's Waltz", Acoustic

"How Denton’s Veloura manages to pick the best pieces of ’70s rock (the unironic radio kind, not the hipster-approved Cars kind) and combine it with original modern flourishes -- and not sound like a quartet of douche bags -- is anyone’s guess. We think, though, it’s got something to do with smart songwriting, unexpected breaks and song dynamics, and knowing how to avoid overdoing it." - the Dallas Observer
