Grouper is the solo project of American musician Liz Harris, who has been blending ambient, psychedelic folk and dream pop since 2005. Her recordings are built on layered guitars, a voice submerged in tape hiss and reverb, and an atmosphere that feels like a half-remembered dream. Her breakthrough came with Dragging a Dead Deer Up a Hill (2008), followed by albums such as Ruins and Shade. Besides Grouper, Harris also records as Helen, Nivhek and Raum.
Liz Harris revived her long-dormant trio project Helen and announced the first album in more than ten years titled Linda's Head.
The album Linda's Head by the Helen project was released on October 2, 2026 on the Kranky label.
Grouper announced in spring 2026 her first North American tour in several years, covering six cities in the USA and Canada.
In autumn 2026, Grouper announced a European tour, which will visit Prague on October 30 at the Alternativa festival.
In November 2025, a reissue of Harris's early recording Way Their Crept was released on the Kranky label.
