The singer and songwriter of the band, Halsey, has been releasing music since 2008. She’s had a lot of success with her songs and albums.

The when was music invented is a question that has been asked many times. Music is one of the oldest forms of entertainment and it has been around for centuries.

All Night Dexter Tortoriello and Megan Messina of Houses are from Chicago, but their dreamy electro-pop has its origins in a powerful three-month sojourn in Hawaii. During his adolescence in suburban Illinois, Tortoriello was a member of metal and noise bands before attending Columbia College. He ultimately dropped out of college and relocated to California before settling in Salt Lake City. He started a solo project called Hospital Tapes about this period. In 2009, Tortoriello moved to Illinois and took a job at a local Apple shop, where he met Messina, a colleague. The couple soon became romantically involved and went to Hawaii in early 2010 to live off the land. They resided in a hut near Papaikou while doing odd tasks for a local artist; Messina painted while Tortoriello worked on solo music, including the avant-noise group Rainbow Circuit. In April 2010, the pair returned to Chicago, where Tortoriello continued to work on songs. In May, he released the first Houses song, “Endless Spring,” which was immediately championed by Pitchfork; by the end of the month, Tortoriello had signed to Lefse Records, home of Neon Indian and How to Dress Well, among others. At this time, Messina joined the band, and the two collaborated on the record throughout the summer. Houses performed their first performance at the 2010 CMJ Festival in October 2010, only days after their first album, All Night, was released, enlisting visual artist Alan Jensen to add some flare to their live presentations. Tortoriello also performed live backing for Tom Krell of How to Dress Well during his CMJ appearances. The band moved from Chicago to Los Angeles and based their second album, A Quiet Darkness, on sounds gathered along California highways in abandoned wayside buildings. In April of 2013, the rich and occasionally ambient-leaning album was published.
