Hands Like Houses biography

Hailing from the capital of Australia, Hands like Houses, are a band that formed in 2008, adorning the US Charts with their original slant on indie rock.

Hands Like Houses are another band that formed out of a local scene when bands disbanded, and new ones formed. Formed out of the bands, So Long Safety and Eternal Debut, the band traveled to Chango Studios record their eponymous debut EP. The band released “This Ain’t No Place for Animal”s and “Lion Skin” on iTunes earning the band 5000 downloads. This led them to a deal with Rise Records, a label based in Oregon, USA. It was with this label that the band recorded their debut album “Ground Dweller” and entered the Billboard 200 chart at number 141, but number 2 in the Billboard Heatseekers Chart. They embarked on two Rise Records tours – The Freshman Class of ’12 Tour supporting The Air I Breathe, Palisades and My Ticket Home.

Following the release of a video EP entitled Snow Sessions, they toured the U.S. with We Came as Romans and Attack Attack! and then in the autumn with Sleeping With Sirens and Pierce the Veil. It was on their UK that the band began to play songs for a brand new album entitled “Unimagine”. It was later released on July 23rd 2013, shortly following the release of the album; on June 27th 2013 the band released the song “A Fire On A Hill”.

In 2014, the band released their following EP entitled “Reimagined” on September 16th 2014. It made it to number 20 on the US Alternative Chart.

Live reviews

The Australian rock band, Hands Like Houses formed in 2008 and got signed by Rise Records. The group got together after being a part of several different bands that had split. It seemed to work well for them as they got working on a full album and in 2011 some of their singles got over 5,000 sales on iTunes alone. From there in 2012 they went on their first US tour, where they supported 'The Air I Breathe' and 'My Ticket Home'. More recently they announced that they were going to be touring Australia doing their own headline tour over September and October, finally being the main attraction I guess. Seeing their live performances had me very impressed by the lead singer, as he is clearly very talented and constantly addressed the crowd as he was singing. He had the whole audience jumping along with him, at one point he was getting so into the moment that I was surprised he didn't launch himself into a full on crowd surf. I unexpectedly enjoyed their performance, their energy was infectious and their fans are always showing their admiration by trying with all their will to get onto the stage with them. An unforgettable performance, I hope they come to the UK to do a tour at some point.

I had a great time at this concert. It was at a small bar in Winston Salem and a few other local bands played as well. I was right in front of the stage since the venue was so small. It was such a relaxed atmosphere and each band would chill with the crowd when they weren't playing. One of the drummers even got up during a song to go have a smoke outside. I love broadside and they gave a great performance.
