Trip Hop
House Of Stairs
Since summer 2014, House of Stairs have been careening through genres to discover their own metric trip hop in Phoenix, AZ. Inspired by the illusionary MC Escher, House of Stairs dissects harmony, rhythm and poetry to weave intense, deceptive and often vulnerable aural tapestries. Phoenix New Times notes them as “One of the Hardest Working Bands in Phoenix,” relating their sound to “the ambient textures of Kid A-era Radiohead, while Pyle’s vocals most evoke Beth Gibbons of Portishead.” Although they’re most often found frequenting every corner of Phoenix, they sometimes tour neighboring Southwest states.
