Beautify Junkyards are a new group from Lisbon. They’ve just released their debut digital EP on bandcamp and did something a little bit different for it. It’s all covers of their versions of mostly folk songs from the 60s & 70s. They take songs like Nick Drake’s “From The Morning’ and explore them in new directions.

Here’s what the band had to say about their reasons for starting out in such a way:

This was an original way we found to start, going to our roots and influences on a first release and from that start to compose original material.

The band is currently recording their debut album, due for a release later in the year. They’re recording in a mobile studio in fields in order to absorb the entire atmosphere. Their debut single will be released in August via British label, Fruits de Mer. The EP and the music video for the Nick Drake cover can both be found below.
