Sluice — Zillow
Played: 2026-03-06 (new release)(TikTok)
Album: Companion | Released: 23 February 2026 (single); album 27 March 2026 | Label: Mtn Laurel. Sluice is a North Carolina-based alt-country/folk band led by songwriter Justin Morris. 'Zillow' is about the housing crisis, exploring the difficulty of finding an affordable home. Morris' songwriting was reignited after an armed robbery in his Brooklyn sublet in 2019 forced him back to North Carolina. The album was recorded at Betty's in Orange County, NC. Band members include Libby Rodenbough (fiddle), Oliver Child-Lanning (bass/multi-instrumentalist), and Avery Sullivan (drums). The track borrows elements from a traditional song. Companion is their third album.
TikTok angle: Personal backstory hook: the songwriter moved to Brooklyn to quit music; his first night there someone kicked in his door and tied him up with TV cables, sending him back to North Carolina to start writing again. The new single is a housing-crisis anthem about scrolling Zillow knowing you'll never afford any of it.
