Brunette is a 5-piece indie rock outfit from the twin cities. Formed in late 2020 by childhood friends/dual songwriters Sam Holt and Joey Hays, their songs are evocative of the nostalgia and impermanence of adolescence, with tunes oscillating between energetic, guitar-heavy choruses and intimate heart-on-their-sleeve verses. Their latest single “Fight Night” fixates on anxiety and apathy working in tandem, with Hays’ lyrics painting an uncomfortable picture of feigning detachment in the face of love.
Hyooman sprouted from the bedroom of songwriter Leng Moua, fueled by his desire to reconnect with his inner fan and love for music. Soon the band was formed, joined by Elise Bremer (keys and vocals), McCoy Seitz (drums and vocals), Dillon Marchus (bass), and Victor Pokorny (guitar and vocals). Hyooman traverses the terrain between the lo-fi bedroom pop of Alex G and the alternative bands of the 90s/early 2000s – while they lyrically explore the themes of introspection, social media, and existential dread. In May 2021 the band released their first single, “Half Brain,” and followed up with the release of their debut album Pilot in June 2022.
