Stripped-back indie pop anchored by remarkably deep, androgynous vocals and clean guitar lines. Intimate, melancholic songs for quiet rooms and late-night reflection.
Kids With Buns create a sound that feels like a whispered secret in a crowded room. Their music is defined by a striking contrast: the delicate, shimmering chime of clean electric guitars set against Marie Van Uytvanck's exceptionally deep, baritone-leaning vocals. It is indie pop that has been slowed down and stripped of its pretension, leaving behind something raw, honest, and deeply atmospheric.
What truly distinguishes the duo is the vocal chemistry between Marie and Amber Piddington. Their harmonies do not just sit on top of one another; they merge into a singular, androgynous texture that feels both haunting and comforting. The production maintains a bedroom-pop intimacy even as they have expanded their sound, favoring warm analog tones and minimalist arrangements that allow the weight of the lyrics to land with full impact.
Start with their debut album 'out of place' to hear the full evolution of their sound. It captures the transition from their early acoustic-leaning bedroom recordings to a more expansive, yet still deeply personal, indie rock aesthetic. It is perfect for anyone who finds beauty in the melancholic and the understated.
