Blackwater Holylight (US)

Born in the misty underbelly of Portland, Oregon, Blackwater Holylight brew a heady mix of fuzzed-out doom, dream-drenched psych, and slow-burning melodies that feel like a séance in a velvet-lined cave.Founded by Allison “Sunny” Faris in 2016, the band flips the heavy-rock script — no macho posturing, just hypnotic riffs, eerie harmonies, and enough low-end to rattle your spine. Their sound drifts between beauty and brutality, pulling you into a trance and then shoving you off the edge. It’s witchy, it’s heavy, it’s heartbreak with distortion pedals.
Blackwater Holylight: music for when the moon’s too bright and you’re done pretending to be okay.
