Hand Habits

Hand Habits is the songwriting outlet of guitarist Meg Duffy. Fun House is Duffy’s most ambitious Hand Habits album to date. Produced by Sasami Ashworth (SASAMI) and engineered by Kyle Thomas (King Tuff), the record was not intended as a reaction to the pandemic, but it was very much the result of taking a difficult, if much-needed, moment of pause. While Fun House shares some of the same hallmarks as previous Hand Habits releases —a kind of outreĢ queer sensibility, a gentle sense of vulnerability — the record is a marked sonic departure from the often muted tones of 2019’s Placeholder and 2017’s Wildly Idle (Humble Before the Void). The eleven tracks on Fun House sparkle, moving in unexpected directions and represent the turning of a corner, a means of processing grief, trauma, and recovery while coming to a deeper understanding of one’s own history and what it means to step into your own power.

In addition to their Hand Habits project, Meg has toured as a guitarist with Sylvan Esso, and has recorded on an extensive list of albums including features on War on Drugs, Weyes Blood, William Tyler, Fruit Bats, and many more. In 2020, Meg joined Perfume Genius as a touring guitarist and has already found the release of a collaborative instrumental album, yes/and (Driftless) with Joel Ford.

Gregory Uhlmann

Gregory Uhlmann is a songwriter, guitarist, and producer from Chicago, IL, now based in Los Angeles. In 2020 he released Neighborhood Watch (Topshelf Records), a collection of what Week in Pop called "intimate cabin fever pop [...] expanded into the eternal atmospheres of inspired baroque touches”. Uhlmann is prolific outside of his solo work, performing with Perfume Genius and Hand Habits and composing for Fell Runner and Typical Sisters, among collaborations with artists such as Tasha, Miya Folick, Nate Mercereau, Olivia Kaplan, and others.
