Horrorshow are an inner west Sydney hip hop duo comprising Solo (Vocals) and Adit (Producer).
The pair emerged on the scene in 2008 with The Grey Space, an album created largely during high school, at a time where they linked up with Spit Syndicate and Joyride to form the extended One Day crew.
The album was released on Elefant Traks, earning an ARIA nomination and tours with The Herd, Muph & Plutonic and Hermitude – all before the duo turned 21. Hot on the heels of their debut followed the second album Inside Story in 2009, solidifying their reputation for eloquent lyricism and soulful production and striking a major chord with a growing legion of fans. It was chosen as a Triple J Feature Album, FBi Album of the Week and had critics buzzing.
Horrorshow have enjoyed an organic rise – they’re not anchored by a passing style or sub-cultural fad, consequently their fanbase is loyal and passionate, selling out shows all over Australia.
They’ve sold out every headline show they’ve ever done in Sydney. They’ve blitzed all the major Australian festivals (including Big Day Out, Splendour in the Grass and Groovin’ the Moo) proving their appeal across genres.
In 2010 they tested the waters internationally, supporting Brother Ali and Urthboy in Germany as well as Hilltop Hoods at their sold out London show.
Horrorshow are currently working on their third album – with the first taste being the understated jam with a big horns section Did You Hear?
