| Building 429 |
 | Some artists are a slow burn, quietly honing their skills while churning out albums of craftsman-quality tunes, and slowly building an intensely loyal fan base through commitment and perseverance.

Then, occasionally, you find an artist like Building 429, who epitomizes both traits – the proverbial ten years in the making overnight success. Interested in more?
