Intro

All Our Exes Live in Texas is an Australian folk quartet formed in 2014, comprising Hannah Crofts, Georgia Mooney, Elana Stone, and Katie Wighton. The group's identity is defined by their sophisticated four-part vocal arrangements and a specific instrumental palette of ukulele, mandolin, accordion, and acoustic guitar.

Their sound bridges the gap between traditional Appalachian bluegrass and modern indie-folk, characterized by a high degree of technical proficiency in both harmony and instrumentation. Their career peaked critically with the 2017 ARIA Award for Best Blues and Roots Album for 'When We Fall'. Culturally, they occupy a space of 'ironic folk', utilizing a humorous name (referencing George Strait) to deliver deeply sincere, often melancholic explorations of heartbreak. They are frequently associated with the Australian indie-folk revival of the mid-2010s, maintaining a reputation for captivating live performances that emphasize their vocal blend. Critical consensus highlights their ability to modernize traditional folk tropes without losing the genre's inherent intimacy.
