about

The generosity of the people we met whilst travelling through Morocco, Spain and Italy, made our trip so much more amazing. This is our thanks to them. Forever in our hearts and in our song.

lyrics

Art of Happiness

The scent of cinnamon and spice, travel through my wandering mind
A trail of sweet delights
And the people I’ve met, spark a beautiful light
On that warm summers night

So I’m wearing your necklace tonight, as tonight I’ll be thinking of you
your kindness so true
How could I forget, such beautiful people
(Like Mouna and Sineb)

It’s the art of happiness
These beautiful people have
They give more than what they get
It’s the art of happiness
These beautiful people have
They give more than what they get

Now we sit down near the waterfront, our tables are not far apart
As we’re basking in the tapas bar
The wine kept on flowing, and conversations were joined
On how their ship sailed in

They say goodbye, we’ve had a ball, they say, we say, give us a call
And leaving much later
Our dinner was paid for. Memories of Barcelona
(And Tony and Manuela)

Under that Tuscan setting sun, the flavours of simplicity
Remind me how it used to be
Of stirring and storing, and grappa-soaked stories
When the harvest comes in, like their fathers and fathers have done
Till the fields are a ’glowing, in the autumn setting sun
In Bella Val D’Orcia, the rat race’s overcome
At Cretaiole e Pienza
(And Carlo and Isabella)

It’s the art of happiness
It's what beautiful people have
They give more than what they get
It’s the art of happiness
It's what beautiful people have
They give more than what they get

Blue Windows Melbourne, Australia

Blue Windows is an original indie modern folk band based in Melbourne and Geelong region.
​
We play modern folk, spiced up with a dash of blues & roots, a teaspoon of country and a drizzle of jazz.

We write and play our own songs with re-imaginings of a few of our favourite songs with a refreshing Blue Windows twist.

We love playing at festivals, wineries, weddings and music venues. ... more
