Resound Presents: Hovvdy in Austin,TX at Mohawk on Wednesday, April 9th!
A self-titled statement piece, Hovvdy’s fifth album fits with the comfortable confidence of
faded blue jeans. Underlining years of hyper-reflective, deeply-fan-beloved songwriting, the 19-
track sequence draws together swirling piano lines and vivid production under the cohesive
vision of longtime friends Charlie Martin and Will Taylor. Hovvdy boldly broadens the scope of
the Texas duo’s songwriting in a new partnership with Toronto-based outlet Arts & Crafts. The
expansive double album presents a true co-production between Hovvdy and their frequent
collaborators, Andrew Sarlo (Bon Iver, Big Thief) and Bennett Littlejohn (bassist, multi-
instrumentalist). An unprecedented focus on live takes further peels the band’s early slowcore
layers to show dazzling dynamic range, from the country feel of “Portrait” to the bombastic
drums of “Meant.” Never staying still too long, Hovvdy easily folds introspection into their big,
fearless choruses. Always guided with a gentle hand, the listener lands right there in the room,
to witness the spontaneous synchronicity of Charlie and Will’s shared songcraft.
