Tophouse

**Tophouse** is the indie rock/pop brainchild of New Zealand-based musician Matt Sadgrove, blending introspective lyricism with sun-soaked, nostalgic melodies. Emerging in the late 2010s, the project channels raw emotional honesty through a mix of shimmering guitar lines, warm synths, and Sadgrove’s laid-back vocal delivery. Tracks like "Waste" and "I Don’t Wanna Move On" showcase their knack for pairing bittersweet reflections with infectiously catchy hooks, while releases like "Be Nobody" and "everything U wanted" lean into themes of self-discovery and fleeting connections. With a DIY ethos and a sound that feels both intimate and expansive, Tophouse has carved out a space as a relatable voice for restless hearts navigating life’s uncertainties. Their 2023 single "The Mountain Song" reaffirms their love for balancing wistful storytelling with energetic, groove-driven instrumentals.
