Towns And Houses

About Me



We're a band from York. Our songs fit somewhere in between indie, rock and pop.... we're not quite sure. Bands we like include Belle and Sebastian, The Smiths, Paul Simon, Doves, Radiohead, The Kinks, The Beatles, Kate Bush, The Watanabes, Take To The Seas and many more.

We sing about terrible times, awful people, depressing houses, crippling jobs, broken relationships and attempts to kill children.

BUT ALSO the benefits of broadening one's mind in old age, the virtues of different countries, the beauty of the world, and helpful tips for young people looking for love.

We're part of Favourite Tree Records.
