Heligoland are a four-piece band from Melbourne, Australia that plays sparse, dreamy and evocative music. Heligoland's songs and sound have been compared to the atmospheric textures and soaring female vocals of the Cocteau Twins, the spartan soulfulness of Low and the wistful melancholy of Mojave 3.
