Austin Heller (they/them) is a musician, songwriter and designer based in Chicago. They lead Smallhounds, a band that likes loud guitars and loud feelings. At the moment, they’re making music for The Pod Has Been Cast — a very cool and very funny live-action TTRPG podcast — and working on a secret project you can ask them about sometime.

In the past, Austin has produced a digital art calendar for charity, designed tiny web games, and in 2023, recorded Smallhounds’ debut album, Triangles. So far, 2024 has been full of surprises.
