Autumn Hollow blends raw rock energy with thoughtful Americana storytelling, led by frontman Brendan Murphy's distinctive vocals and incisive songwriting. With Mike Burke's textured lead guitar work and the dynamic rhythm section of Chuck Vath (bass) and Ian McMillan (drums), the band has become a fixture in the New England music scene through performances at venues like The Paradise Rock Club and Club Passim.

Drawing from diverse influences spanning Bob Dylan to hip hop, Murphy crafts songs that feel both familiar and surprising. His background as a teacher brings lived experience to lyrics that often tackle social themes with nuance and insight. Their previous EP, Throw the House, earned Boston Music Award nominations and praise from the Boston Globe for their "unalloyed rock 'n roll."

Known for live shows that balance jam band spontaneity with tightly crafted songs, Autumn Hollow creates music that respects tradition without being constrained by it. Their forthcoming album Say No More represents a significant evolution in their sound—one that embraces experimentation while remaining accessible and emotionally resonant.

“Hot damn” might be used to describe the first few minutes of Boston-based Autumn Hollow’s “Wooden Wire,” a trembly rocker that combines the vulnerable essence of Jason Molina with the cosmic improvisational charm of Zuma era Neil Young & Crazy Horse. Frontman Brendan Murphy brings a commanding presence to the vocals, and an aura of unfiltered honesty cascades in the five-minute-plus song. -Glide Magazine

“Guitars sparkle with a dampness in places before the heat-rippled organ takes hold on Si Viene Si Va (Italian for ‘it comes and goes) a delightful little ballad that showcases Murphy’s dominant vocal ability. It is a hypnotic, laidback ode to devotion that reminds us to hang on to the ones who’ll stand by us no matter what.” -Alan Cackett

“Like a little cross between Whiskey Town and Uncle Tupelo as these guys caught me right away.” -Musikkbloggen

“The album’s momentum never wavers, and not once did a song grace my ears that I didn’t want to hear again. Or three times, or four. F**k it, just hit repeat and let this be the soundtrack of my day!” -Max Bowen of the Noise

“Autumn Hollow is a band that sounds like The Band. They have one foot in rock, one in folk and one in-country. They are a three-legged monster of Americana.”- Daykamp
