Lord Huron
While most if not all songwriters people their work with imagined characters, Lord Huron’s songs inhabit entire fictional worlds, dreamed up by Michigan-born frontman Ben Schneider, from inspirations including Western adventure novels and Kurt Vonnegut’s writings. The quintet’s unique spin on US indie-folk sets tales of romance and tragedy amid hauntingly harmonised, reverb-heavy soundscapes, stirred up with surf guitar and rockabilly licks.
Genre: Indie folk
