Something about the music of Damn Tall Buildings speaks to the desolate heart, capturing regret mixed with hope, the kind that hits when least expected, ushering in a moment of cold sublimity before life beckons the lost and wandering back toward routine. Comprising Avery Ballotta, Max Capistran and Sasha Dubyk, Damn Tall Buildings got their start busking for passing strangers. Time passed, and they found success as they embarked on deeper explorations of bluegrass, swing and Americana music, finally arriving at soundscapes entirely their own. Now fully realized and based in Brooklyn, Damn Tall Buildings retains that youthful energy and uses it to connect with audiences, making even the biggest venue feel intimate.
