Richard Grist – A Voice from the Jagged Edges of Indie Rock
Born and based in Christchurch, New Zealand, Richard Grist is a singer-songwriter whose music fuses raw storytelling with atmospheric indie rock. Drawing inspiration from artists like Band of Horses, Wilco, and Nick Cave, his songs explore themes of longing, resilience, and self-discovery.

Richard's distinctive songwriting has earned him a growing following, blending melodic, cinematic soundscapes with introspective lyrics. Whether crafting delicate acoustic pieces or expansive, guitar-driven tracks, his music reflects the emotional depth of an artist who has lived through the highs and lows of creativity.

In 2023, Richard gained viral traction on TikTok (@richardgristmusic), sharing songwriting insights and behind-the-scenes glimpses of his creative process. As the frontman of Blackhole Stars, he reached #1 on the Repost Exchange Pop/Rock Chart with the album Halfway Home. Now stepping into his solo career, Richard is carving his own path with a sound that’s both intimate and anthemic.

With new music on the horizon, Richard Grist invites listeners into a world where melancholy meets hope, and every song tells a story.
