Fish Hunt is the musical project of New York native Lucy Mondello. Equipped with a unique affinity for all things careful and sensitive, Lucy’s songwriting is rich and thoughtful, think a homemade meal or a patchwork quilt. She found her voice listening to such artists as Modest Mouse, Johanna Warren, and Animal Collective, which has led her to a unique sonic palette that’s all her own. Her sophomore release, Self Taught, sees her adding to the quilt in a big way, collaborating with many of her musical contemporaries to create a dynamic record that is as courageous as it is cozy. In addition to her own work, Lucy has also played in the live bands of artists Claud, Diet Cig, and waveform*. Recently released LP: Self Taught, January 12th 2024. Upcoming LP: Summer 2025.
People I Love
With a hyper-specific lo-fi-ish sound reminiscent of Alex G that is at once calming and invigorating, People I Love—the solo project of Brooklyn-based Dan Poppa—emphasizes the charm in subtlety, using spare lyrics to convey big feelings. His 2024 self-titled album is effortlessly soft and lovely, its songs delivering the beauty and heartache of love in equal measure.
