Still Blank

Transatlantic duo — singer/multi-instrumentalist Jordy from Kauaʻi and guitarist Ben from Manchester — who met by chance in Liverpool in 2022 and started in a basement. Shoegaze, grunge and minimalist psych-folk; reviewers reach for Big Thief and Angel Olsen. The self-titled debut (2025) was produced by Joel Pott and Flood across London, LA and a remote Welsh cabin, in sessions compressed into roughly three weeks after Jordy was unexpectedly deported mid-album over a visa problem — the original Liverpool basement demos, out-of-tune bits and all, were left in the final mixes. "Fever Dream" is one of two new songs on the deluxe edition.
