## About

Softcult is a Canadian duo from Ontario, made up of twin siblings Mercedes and Phoenix Arn-Horn, who pair shoegaze haze and dream pop melody with the confrontational streak of riot grrrl and 90s grunge. Before forming the band around 2020, the pair played in the pop-punk group Courage My Love, and Phoenix still handles drums, backing vocals and production alongside Mercedes&#39; vocals and guitar. Live, they play with a touring lead guitarist and bassist, which gives the wall-of-fuzz arrangements a fuller, heavier sound than the studio recordings suggest.
