Bio
As often the story goes, Skye Harbour had been playing in bedrooms and school bandrooms around Adelaide for years. As maturity approached, a passion for playing music deepened and after some travelling the boys decided to take the dream seriously and make the move to Melbourne.

One year, one trashed warehouse and a few gatecrashed parties later in notorious Footscray the boys are finally settled in Melbourne, have released their EP 'Houses' and are looking to take over stages and airwaves nationally.

Houses   

Review by: <Scott_m> , 1.8.2008

Skye Harbour are a finer guilty pleasure than those late night ads for soft rock music compilations featuring Air Supply, REO Speedwagon and Hall & Oates. With tempo changes, a dash of horns and more MOR than you can shake a Supertramp stick at, Houses is an upbeat prog folly that culminates in a joyful sing-along.

Another great song. Great chorus with perfect harmonies, amazing bridge section with cool dueling guitar solos. Well done.

Wow! Epic! Great song, very powerful. Love seeing this song live and your recording does it justice for sure. I just dont like the applause at the end, kinda takes some of the power away.
