POSTCARD COMETS…
…are, first and foremost, songwriters. David Partridge and Robert “Buck” Wilburn are also seasoned singers, multi-instrumentalists and producers. Together, they create rootsy, song-based pop that blends acoustic, electric and electronic elements into an engaging lyric-focused listening experience.
Based in and around Toronto, Canada, they draw from a variety of styles including rock, folk, soul and country. But regardless of the inspiration, the execution is always in service of the song.
