Being Dead is a captivating indie rock duo known for their whimsical and somewhat macabre approach to music and visual aesthetics. The band consists of members Juli Keller and Cody Dosier, who hail from Austin, Texas, and have been making waves in the underground music scene with their unique blend of psychedelic folk, lo-fi rock, and theatrical performances. They burst onto the scene with a series of intriguing releases that showcase their penchant for quirky storytelling and genre-blending soundscapes.

Their music is a tapestry of haunting melodies, deadpan vocal delivery, and a sense of humor that cuts through the existential themes their name suggests. Notable tracks like "Boxes On The Ground" and "Apostles' Prom" display their ability to craft songs that are both thought-provoking and irresistibly catchy. The track "Fame Money Death By Drive By" reflects on the fleeting nature of success, while "Rocky Mountain Cowboy Blues" reveals their storytelling prowess through a more Americana lens. Being Dead's amalgamation of sounds and reflective lyrics has carved out a niche for them in the indie music world, garnering a following of listeners who are drawn to their distinctive artistry and daring performances.
