Hiding Places
Hushed folk detail and slowcore tension erupting into distorted guitar release
Based in New York City, United States
Slow-to-midtempo songs pair interlocking acoustic and electric guitars with Audrey Keelin and Nicholas Byrne’s restrained, alternating vocals. Expect patient verses, close harmonies and spare rhythm-section playing that can suddenly break into abrasive solos, organ-like drones and stop-start distortion.
More about Hiding Places
Hiding Places grew from friendships at UNC Chapel Hill’s WXYC radio station and writing retreats at Byrne’s grandparents’ farm near Athens, Georgia. Now assembled in New York, they moved from home-recorded EPs to Keeled Scales; 2026 debut The Secret To Good Living was their first collection made together in a professional studio, with much of the band tracked live.
