THE HARD QUARTET

Stephen Malkmus, Matt Sweeney, Emmett Kelly and Jim White are The Hard Quartet.

Collectively covering musical ground as members of Pavement, Dirty Three, Bonnie Prince Billy, Ty Segall, Chavez and more, as The Hard Quartet these four musicians selflessly merge, become musical, and emit rock n’ roll that is familiar but new, warm but icy, melodic but Sphinx-like in its seductive and subtle riddles…

There are older vibes: getting older, its less about having to prove yourself.”—S.M.

We come from such different places and weve have such different career histories, but I think that now were all in a similar place, which is kind of strange to acknowledge.”—E.K.

Their eponymous debut album, a double, brings together years of collective influence, inspiration and inhibition but more than anything it harnesses the intuitive nature of these musicians to get inside the song and bring out its best side. As a first effort its an instant classic.

Ive listened to all three of these people a lot over the years. Playing with them now just feels natural. Maybe natural’ in this situation means its not a struggle.”—J.W

This just seems like a really good band for us all to be in for the foresee able future. Well go until the wheels fall off. I cant think of three better guys than these three guys. Theres something sweet and solid about the vibe.” M.S.

And following three showcase performances across New York, Los Angeles and London, The Hard Quartet will make international touring debut with Australia as their first stop.

Dont miss the debut tour of The Hard Quartet, live this January.
