HIDING PLACES Debut LP 'The SECRET to Good LIVING' on Lavender Vinyl

LABEL: Keeled Scales
RELEASE DATE: 05/15/2026
VARIANT: Lavender Vinyl LP

Hiding Places are an indie rock band based in New York City, and The Secret to Good Living is the debut LP they're releasing with Keeled Scales on April 3, 2026. Years of live shows and studio work went into shaping it, and it's the first entry in their catalog made together in a professional studio rather than at their separate home bases. Audrey Keelin (vocals, guitar), Nicholas Byrne (vocals, guitar), Henry Cutting (drums) and Michael Matsikis (bass, production) came originally from North Carolina and Georgia. Their sound looks forward and carries nostalgia inside it at the same time — collage-like indie rock from Yo La Tengo, the elegant slowcore of The New Year, the riffy story-songs of Drive-By Truckers, the analog hum of The Microphones.

Hiding Places (noun) Definition of Hiding Places 1. : Being in a place of the present moment that a song transports you to.
