Quiet Houses are an Edinburgh born and Manchester based indie-folk duo made up of Hannah Elliott) and Jamie Stewart. After forming in early 2018, the pair started writing songs rooted in the wistful folk sound-world of Laura Marling and Belle & Sebastian and the quirky lyricism of indie songwriters Courtney Barnett and Kurt Vile. Since releasing their debut EP “Armchair Tree” in May 2019 the duo have been championed by Ryan Paul (BBC Introducing Manchester), Shell Zenner (Amazing Radio) Tom Robinson (BBC 6 Music) and BBC Introducing Scotland. Support comes from May Payne, a Manchester and London-based singer-songwriter known for her deeply vulnerable, piano-led ballads infused with R&B and emo influences. She gained a cult following online at a young age by sharing personal insights, a radical honesty that continues to guide her music today. Her sound blends acoustic intimacy with intricate production, drawing comparisons to artists like Phoebe Bridgers.
