Renee & Jeremy are known for their hush indie-folk originals and covers that transform classic songs into quiet mantras. Solo artists in their own right, Renee Stahl and Jeremy Toback (also the original bassist of cult grunge band, Brad) combine to create a flavor of low harmony all their own. The duo first recorded soothing tunes for kids and families on 2006’s It’s A Big World, which has become a lullaby classic. They followed with 2012's A Little Love, which featured a breezy acoustic take on Queen’s "You’re My Best Friend," and the recent Whole Lotta Love, with indie-folk transformations of iconic tunes like "Sweet Child O’ Mine," "Kids" and "Where Is My Mind?" Renee & Jeremy's new album, shout! is out this summer, with chill acoustic covers of "As It Was," Shout," and "Our House," as well as easy groove originals like "Let The Day Reveal."
The Big Takeover wrote of 2021’s Whole Lotta Love: “They have essentially taken a wealth of classic songs… and reinvented them as understated whisper-folk meets ambient minimalism… The world is a better place for them playing the covers card.”
