Vessels is a predominately all female indie acoustic rock band from SI that uses eclectic instrumentation similar to Beirut, Arcade Fire and Belle and Sebastian. Haunting female vocals, dark but pretty melodies, all lend to their rich sound that has a classical feel but remains faithful to their indie rock roots.
