About

This Beautiful Mess is a Dutch indie rock quintet from Vlissingen, Zeeland, formed in 1997. Their 2001 debut 'Falling On Deaf Ears' - released via Sally Forth Records/Sony Music in the Benelux and Deep Elm Records in the US, Canada and Japan - put them on the international map, with single 'Clean' earning airplay on 3FM and Kink FM and festival slots at Lowlands and Eurosonic. After a lengthy hiatus, the band returned in 2021 with the EP 'Second Mountain Songs' and released their fifth album 'the Soft Powers' in May 2024. Their sound blends shoegaze, post-rock and melancholic indie with layered guitars and cinematic arrangements.
