“If they can do this in their mid teens, the future could be positively Bee Gees”
an exploration of the intricacies of human connection from a fresh alternative pop angle…
Stan and Macy are a young alternative pop duo from Brighton who first collaborated when they were 12. They formed their partnership two years later and have been writing, performing, producing and recording original songs since. Initially they created music independently, but now work together to explore and dissect the intricacies of human connection and distance through their poetic lyrics, unique concepts and interesting harmonies, oftentimes delving into other people’s lives for inspiration…
“There’s something remarkable going on with this pair. I’m not entirely sure what, but I do know I wasn’t accomplishing this quality in my teens. The harmonies are remarkable, the arrangements too. Lyrically they are youthfully surreal and they write, play and record it all themselves. People my age like to slag off the music the youth are making these days; it isn’t reflected here at all. This quality of songcraft nouse only improves with time. If they can do this in their mid teens, the future could be positively Bee Gees. Not signed or managed or ‘owt like that. And just a reminder: the last time I bigged up a Brighton teen duo on my FB page they turned out to be Rizzle Kicks”

“Outline create refreshing and unique indie pop with incredible production values. Their single, Citrus, is no exception. It’s upbeat and filled with ear candy! They’re definitely one to watch this summer!”
“A really exciting prospect - teenage duo Outline deliver glorious harmonies that are framed by that rare thing, interesting and original songwriting. It’s been such a pleasure seeing Stan and Macy grow and their sound mature in the last two years.”
“I’m really excited for the future of Outline. They are only at the beginning of their music careers but they have already written some great songs which showcase their superb vocals that compliment each other so well both live & on record. They are definitely one’s to watch in the years to come!”

About Our Debut Single ‘Citrus’
“This tartly wonderful slice of summer pop is very very good. Also all the more so because Stan mixed it all himself (in the spare hours where he would have been doing A Levels?). Highly recommend a listen.”
