Hiding Places is an indie-folk and slowcore rock quartet based in New York City. Formed in 2020 by college radio DJs from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the band is known for atmospheric, guitar-driven textures and dual songwriting. Kenward grew up in a small town in Northern California, later moving to San Francisco and then finally to L.A. His knack for visual storytelling is palpable throughout his songwriting; there’s a nostalgia to the work––that unsettling yet comforting oddity that tends to interrupt almost every day, consistently bubbling under the surface. His previous LPs Cooper Kenward (2022) and Dying in a Diner (2024) showcased a songwriter trying to parse the existential, stretching his neck out of a suburban window to witness something––anything––that would make it all make sense. By way of introduction, Nashville guitarist Josh Halper quips, “I was raised in Tennessee by a Jewish, New York Deadhead...” That’s not all you need to know about him, but that curious and compelling combination captures the mixture of humor, sorrow and musical virtuosity that ripples throughout Halper’s music. A celebrated sideman and lead guitarist for artists like Tommy Prine, Peter One, Lily Hiatt, and Teddy and the Rough Riders – Halper practices a graceful restraint both lyrically and instrumentally.
