Housekeys

Housekeys is a moniker adopted by multi-instrumentalist and composer Tiffiny Costello (also a UTA physics major!) for her music. Launched in 2014, the project blurs the lines between ethereal genres like ambient, post-rock, and neoclassical. After spending almost a decade moving between cities, she’s currently based in Fort Worth, Texas. Housekeys’ music is generally pretty melancholy—wintry, but not without warmth. It calls to mind musicians like William Basinski, Grouper, and The Haxan Cloak. Costello is currently in the throes of finishing up an album that she started recording at Sigur Ros’s Sundlaugin studio in Iceland in October of 2022, and will finish recording it there in 2024 with Icelandic producer Albert Finnbogosan.
