Pillow Fite

CANADA | 2022 PARTICIPANT | TEAM 5

 

The alt-pop duo Pillow Fite is aptly named: like the activity itself, they wield softness and make it sting.

Art Ross (they/them) and Aaron Green (he/him) come from disparate backgrounds and musical forms, meeting in the middle to comprise a band that’s tender and fierce, exuberant and gentle. Green—a veteran of the Halifax rock scene, the guitar anchor of Floodland and Hello Delaware—and Ross—a rookie trans songwriter with an acoustic guitar—started writing songs together over text, by accident.

Pillow Fite emerged publicly at the start of 2021 with its non-binary gender-subverting aesthetics already in place and a languid lead single in “Playing the Fool.” Halifax, a town built on and stuck in rock music made by men, responded with supportive fervour, selling out back-to-back shows that saw the duo expand its sound with help from the scene’s most in-demand players. Pillow Fite’s debut EP ‘Flutter’ is out now.
