The London duo's sparse, vocal-forward sound grew from SoundCloud uploads to four albums of personal, melodic music.
For a good sense of their sound, try Lifetimes or White Blood. They're quiet, vocal-forward tracks that show what the duo does best.
They started by putting songs straight to SoundCloud in 2014, bypassing traditional channels and building a connection with listeners online. Tracks like Love Me Now and Lifetimes show their sound, quiet, melodic, and built around personal lyrics. They've kept that intimate feel even as they've worked with artists like Rufus Wainwright and John Legend.
Josephine Vander Gucht and Anthony West began releasing music directly online in 2014, which built them a following. They've put out four albums since then: Our Velocity, Ultralife, No One Else Can Wear Your Crown, and 22 Make. Their live shows maintain that close-knit feel, fitting with how they first connected with fans.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
