About the artist

House and Land

HOUSE AND LAND, the avant-garde folk duo hailing from Kentucky, are like a breath of fresh Appalachian air. Comprised of Sarah Louise and Sally Anne Morgan, these multi-instrumentalists have been captivating audiences with their hauntingly beautiful harmonies and intricate musicianship. Their music is a mesmerising blend of traditional folk sounds and experimental twists, drawing inspiration from the deep roots of American music while pushing the boundaries of the genre. With Sarah's ethereal vocals and intricate fingerstyle guitar playing complemented by Sally's mesmerising fiddle work, HOUSE AND LAND create a sonic tapestry that is both soothing and exhilarating. Their latest album, "Across the Field," is a masterclass in minimalism, with sparse arrangements that allow their voices to shine through. The songs are steeped in history, drawing on age-old ballads and traditions, yet somehow feel fresh and modern. Watching HOUSE AND LAND perform live is a truly transcendent experience. Their onstage chemistry is undeniable, and their passion for the music is palpable. Whether they're playing in an intimate venue or a packed festival stage, their music has a way of drawing listeners in and holding them captive until the last note fades away. In a music landscape filled with cookie-cutter pop stars and manufactured sounds, HOUSE AND LAND are a breath of fresh air. They remind us that music is about more than just catchy hooks and flashy production - it's about emotion, connection, and storytelling. And in that regard, HOUSE AND LAND are true masters of their craft.
