Beautiful Machines

With outstanding smooth bold vocals and lush harmonies they’ve performed at Burningman, SXSW and Decompression." ~ Dark Beauty Magazine "S.F.’s Beautiful Machines generate a dense arena-sized electro-rock sound that aims
 to be a total immersive experience, a darkly modern laser vibe with Schuman’s moody mutterings lending the right attitude.  “Real Love” shows the band’s ability to create a shimmering sci-fi aura."  ~  Music Connection Magazine Awards13th Annual Independent Music Award "IMA": Indie/Alt.
