  • Architecture in Helsinki is a five-piece Indie-pop group from Melbourne. Their music is influenced by a broad range of styles, from electronic to rock, and will often switch between these influences within a single song. They support their flexible compositional style with a vast selection of instruments, from synthesizers to the glockenspiel, in both their recorded music and their live performances.
  • The Collective Grows and Contracts

    Similar to their expansive sound, the band's lineup was well known for its size. Shortly after working together with a band called The Rhinestone Horns, Architecture in Helsinki added all 3 members to its original 5. And while two of the added members eventually left the group, Architecture in Helsinki recorded and toured with all 8 members for nearly 3 years.

  • Quotes

    "When we were in Norway at the end of last year there were a few Finnish interviewers who came to interview us mainly about the name. I think they were quite perplexed. To us, the name means having to answer many questions and inquiries about the name, which I guess, is entirely understandable."
