Still Blank
The Social, W1W 7JD , [Venue Details]Still Blank’s sound—a unique blend of shoegaze haze, folk intimacy, and emotionally raw ambient alt-rock grit—was born from unlikely roots.
Jordy grew up immersed in the natural rhythms of island life in Hawaii, gigging at weddings and fundraisers by her early teens while drawing inspiration from Hawaiian traditions and the deep solitude of Kaua’i.
Ben, raised on Manchester’s rich musical legacy and early pub gigs with his dad’s band, developed a taste for ambient textures, citing The Durutti Column and Vini Reilly as formative influences. Their unlikely meeting in the UK sparked a lightning-in-a-bottle creative partnership.
What started as casual jam sessions in a Liverpool basement quickly evolved, with sessions ranging from stripped-back recordings on a broken classical guitar to studio lock-ins fueled by long walks through rural Wales and a shared commitment to imperfection.
With lyrics steeped in people-watching, dreams, nature, and existential observation, Still Blank’s songwriting draws from both introspection and their surroundings, echoing the mood of artists like Yo La Tengo, Big Thief, Cat Power, and PJ Harvey. With a growing cult curiosity within the scene, Still Blank’s sound resists categorization — they are setting their own rules and embracing ambiguity.
