Hollow Coves

Hollow Coves is an Australian indie folk duo formed in Brisbane in 2013 by Ryan Henderson and Matt Carins. Building an audience largely through streaming and licensing rather than traditional radio, the pair released their debut EP, Drifting, in late 2014, and the single «The Woods» became an early breakout track, spreading through word of mouth and blog attention.

Their sound centers on gentle acoustic guitar, layered vocal harmonies, and a warm, unhurried atmosphere that has drawn comparisons to Angus & Julia Stone, Ben Howard, and The Paper Kites — artists the duo has cited as influences. Themes of nature, escape, and quiet reflection run through their catalog, giving the music a cinematic, wide-open quality that has made it a frequent fit for film and television placements.

Songs such as «Coastline» and «These Memories» extended the group's reach well beyond Australia, and Hollow Coves has continued to release music and tour internationally, maintaining a devoted following built on the intimacy and consistency of their folk-pop songwriting.
