About Pillow Fort

Pillow Fort emerged from Leicester, UK, in 2020 as the solo project of Ryan Crick, who drew inspiration from contemporary emo and pop punk bands like Origami Angel, Free Throw, and Arms Length. Blending these influences with bursts of math rock and classic punk energy, Pillow Fort quickly developed a distinctive sound marked by raw, heartfelt vocals, melancholic yet energetic instrumentals, and deeply relatable lyrics. The project evolved into a Nottingham-based trio when university friends Sam Rodmell (also known from Scumbag Lion) and Isaac Peacock (of The Vicar’s Mustang) joined, leading to their live debut in December 2021.

Since then, Pillow Fort has become a prominent name in the UK’s DIY emo scene, earning critical acclaim for their emotionally authentic approach. They have shared the stage with notable acts such as Michael Cera Palin, Crywank, Teenage Halloween, and Your Arms Are My Cocoon, further solidifying their reputation. Their discography includes two well-received EPs: "Words That Change in Meaning" (2022) and its companion release "And Words That Stay the Same" (2023), both released on cassette via Hunkofplastic Records. These limited runs sold out within 24 hours, underscoring their growing fanbase. After a three-year creative pause, Pillow Fort is preparing to release new music, promising to expand their melodically ambitious and emotionally raw sound to an ever-widening audience.
