houseguest is an all-trans post-emo rock band based on unceded Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh territories. Formed in early 2023, their brand of off-kilter garage rock stitches together moody guitar hooks and an intimate rhythm section. The band fuses these elements together beneath evocative lyrics and disparate-yet-harmonious dual vocal performances. TL;DR: think Mitski meets Modern Baseball, with a side of shoegaze.
houseguest is:
Elizabeth Black (she/her) guitar, vocals
MJ Laing (he/they) guitar, vocals
Caitlyn Kavanagh (she/her) drums, vocals
Rachael Waldock (she/her) bass, keys
Catch houseguest Jul 23th 6:00pm PST during Ready, Set, Sound!’s showcase at Centennial Square.
