Niagara Falls is an experimental band from Philadelphia, PA that has ties to the recent psych folk resurgence as well as the burgeoning noise and neo-ambient or space music movements. They formed in 2004 as a quartet of Norman Fetter, Jeff Carpineta, Erich Breimhurst, and Jennifer Lee, and became known for their live improvised performances, and constantly shifting instrumentation. Comparisons are often made to German groups such as Tangerine Dream and Popol Vuh. Their music references German krautrock, and Minimalism, as well as contemporary artists such as Thuja, Jackie-O-Motherfucker, and Wooden Wand & The Vanishing Voice. Norman Fetter and Jeff Carpineta also co-founded the Honeymoon Music record label in 2004, which releases Niagara Falls albums.

They released their first album, Barrel Vault in 2004 which was a live improvised recording of their fist meeting. Zwei followed in 2006, which saw the band drastically changing instrumentation, and performance approaches. Released in late 2006, Plays Spiral Isles saw the band exploring a more electronic approach to creating their signature drone.

The current line up consists of Norman Fetter, Sam Cusumano, Noah Levey and Geoff Bucknam.
