The Veils

The Veils return to Control in full force, full band. Fronted by Anglo–New Zealand singer-songwriter Finn Andrews, their alt-rock wanders just outside the familiar indie lines, threading darkness with softness into a cinematic current that draws images out of sound. The Veils have toured consistently throughout their twenty year history and garnered a formidable reputation as one of the world’s greatest live bands. They have also been praised by film directors Paolo Sorrentino, Tim Burton and David Lynch who have all used their music on their soundtracks. Following the critically acclaimed release of Asphodels in 2025, The Veils return with a bold and invigorated new album, Fragile World, out this June. The album’s title is both a reflection of the present moment - a time in which many institutions appear to be crumbling before our eyes - and a metaphor for the act of creation itself. The process of making music, Andrews notes, is a delicate and fragile undertaking where thousands of small decisions gradually coalesce into a finished whole. With its immediacy, intensity, and emotional clarity, Fragile World stands as one of The Veils’ most compelling releases to date.
