Luxury Liners is a band from Baltimore, Maryland, United States, fronted by Carter Tanton (formerly of Lower Dens).
When Tanton, ex-Lower Dens member and current Luxury Liners captain, first began writing songs for They're Flowers (arriving 02 April 2013 via Western Vinyl), the Baltimore tunesman relied on a nylon string guitar he found in a basement.
