The Beautiful Few
The Beautiful Few is an Australian band, originally formed in 1993 and going through many line-up changes. The band's first demo tape was recorded by Quincy McLean in August 1993 at the Bakehouse Studios, and have released 6 albums, 1 EP and numerous singles over the course of their career.
The band's 2005 album, If You Change Your City You're Sure To Change Your Style, was reviewed by Exclaim!, which noted, "Yet no matter how cluttered and disorderly If You Change is, there are some genuinely inspired pop songs that might just keep you listening, just in case another one is waiting just around the corner. Unfortunately, there probably isn't though."
