Melbourne songwriter Tim Downey explores the light and shadow of life’s mysteries.
His songs are full of lyrical imagery that paints a bittersweet and sometimes abstract reality.
Since its inception in 2017, folk rock band Beautiful Buildings has been the focus of Tim’s musical output, writing and performing alongside friend and collaborator Di Casey. Their vocal harmonies feature in all of their work, characterising the band’s sound.
Fast forward to today and Tim and Di are poised to release their second single, Waking Up, along with new bandmates who helped bring the song to life in the studio.
The song describes a process of enlightenment. Switching yourself on after years of aimless drifting, and the idea that there is more fulfilment to be found in one’s inner world.
Catch them at the Taproom at Shedshaker Brewery in Castlemaine this coming Friday from 7.30pm to 9.30pm. Entry is free.
