Hound Heart

Isaac and Alli met at a music venue in Richmond, Virginia some time in late September of 2017, after Isaac had stepped off stage from a show he’d played that night with his then band, Lady Empire. Isaac was a Richmond native and long time local drummer and songwriter, and Alli Walls, originally from Florida, had just moved to the city to pursue music on land after two years of performing as a singer on cruise ships. From there, they met almost nightly in the basement of Isaac’s downtown apartment building. In that long, echoey hallway— with an old Gibson guitar—they crafted and honed their sound, learning the nuances of each other’s voices, felt the magic of well crafted melodies and powerful lyrics. The magnetism of each practice and performance grew, and they built a dedicated partnership with a vow of commitment to their art. In 2018, under the name ‘Isaac & Alli’, they started playing as a duo throughout the Richmond area, garnering support from the local music scene, with Alli often joining Lady Empire as a guest vocalist. That June, they made the difficult decision to move to Denver, Colorado to expand their project in a new city, and soon thereafter began performing under the name Hound Heart. Denver proved to be a flourishing greenhouse for musicians. After a string of gigs and consistent open mics, they quickly gained support from local musicians and music lovers throughout Colorado. They then flew back to Richmond to record their demo EP at Montrose Recording. They tracked five songs live on February 25th, capturing the raw nature of their live performances. You can find Hound Heart performing throughout Denver and the surrounding Colorado areas as they build their first regional tour. Their self-titled EP can be found on all major platforms.
