Tyler Mabry and Harlow Phillips were still only juniors in high school when their third single “i haunt ur dreams,” went from a teenage joke to a breakout hit. At the time, songwriting was an escape more than a catharsis. Amidst coming out at a young age, Phillips battled suicidal ideations, mental health episodes, and alcoholism. Mabry, too, had reckoned with addiction, but from the perspective of watching loved ones destroy themselves. Before either reached adulthood, they had learned to live with grief in various forms. They had already been through everything together, and it was before everything else had even started.

“i haunt ur dreams” was how most people found out about the band, including Tommy Trautwein, who became their co-producer, collaborator, and bassist. Their early releases led to an opening slot for Cage The Elephant, and performances at Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Austin City Limits, and Hinterland. Throughout, the duo kept writing new songs at a furious clip. From their 2023 project We’re Starting To Look Like Each Other to 2024’s Maine EP and 2025’s harrowing concept EP 33°, the duo documented generational experience with the wisdom of young adults forced to grow up too fast in a chaotic 21st century. The band’s infuences influences include Big Thief, Modern Baseball, and Frightened Rabbit and more.

When conceiving Hound, hey, nothing also reconsidered what they wanted to convey in their songwriting. After the fervent response to Maine and 33°, they felt an obligation to continue making heartbreaking music, but found themselves worn out by it. Instead, they began thinking about how to reframe the ideas and experiences they were still processing through their songs. For both, that meant continuing to dissect their relationships with their families and being “catapulted into adulthood,” but seeking to move on from anger and hurt and instead locate gratitude. “In your twenties, you’re thinking about your parents, and some of the things they went through, but I wanted to take a different approach on this record,” Phillips explains. “We’re now talking about being thankful for how they’ve improved. It’s more a happy reflection than being so sad all the time.”

“I look at Hound as a big learning curve and confidence boost,” Phillips says, describing the album as a roundabout story of all the ways the two have grown in the last two years. “This is what we want to create, this is how we want it to sound.”

“We made it through those first few fever dream years of touring and releasing music,” Mabry concludes. “Now we’re asking: What now? Who are we? That’s what we’re finding out.”
