Edit history

House Fire is the product of multi-instrumentalist George Stribling and vocalist Desiree McCann. George, originally from Perth, Australia, and Desiree, originally from San Francisco, California, met while studying abroad in London. They’ve spent the following two years apart, all the while writing and recording together. House Fire’s summer-stained sound is built on melancholy lyrics folded into upbeat, guitar-driven indie pop inspired by Vampire Weekend, Tame Impala, Phoenix, and Dirty Projectors. The duo’s two EPs (Never See You Again and Hotel) are conversations with themselves and to each other, navigating their long-distance relationship and all the ~~emotion~~ that comes with it.
