Led by enigmatic frontman Finn Andrews, the Veils built their reputation on a blend of mercurial witching hour sonics and soulful rock songwriting. The English-born, New Zealand-raised Andrews was still in his teens when he signed to Rough Trade, and he led the Veils through a trio of albums during their first decade, including the 2006 highlight Nux Vomica. On-stage they presented a fierce live act, while in the studio the band's music became increasingly textured and atmospheric, leading to prominent film and television placements with auteurs like Tim Burton and David Lynch. Following 2016's Total Depravity, Andrews released a solo album and continued touring on his own. Battling through injury and a series of life changes, he reconvened the Veils for 2023's double album ...And Out of the Void Came Love.
