BIO:
Buffalo Hunt is the songwriting moniker of Austin, TX, multi-hyphenate Stephanie Hunt, who when not acting, writing or hosting, is composing thoughtful “take-a-puff-and-put-on-the-headphones” kind of songs with lyrics that cleverly upend your expectations or surprise you with metaphor. Touting a sound that seamlessly blends psychedelic pop, Laurel Canyon-style songcraft and midcentury honky-tonk touches, she makes music you are meant to spend time with. An artistically formidable effort, her debut album “Ambitions of Ambiguity” is the sort of record that’s easy to love on first listen, while also being lauded by Rolling Stone, FLAUNT, Americana Highways, KUTX & The Austin Chronicle among others.
With additional appearances on songs with James Petralli (White Denim), Ghost Songs with Alex Maas and Christian Bland (of The Black Angels), Pope Coke, her outfit with Jazz Mills (Cowboy & Indian) and duets with her husband Shakey Graves, she’s proven a diverse collaborator with a wide palette of musical taste.
Now a mother, with a dose of new perspective, she approaches the next phase of Buffalo Hunt with a wide range of contributors, touring prospects and new music in tow.

PRESS MENTIONS:
“Inspired by Sahm’s cosmic musical exploration, the song is the first taste of the singer-actress’s album under the moniker Buffalo Hunt.”
- Rolling Stone
“Hunt shows a diversity of style ranging from psychedelic to harmonic to acoustic. Written in an uncertain age about the uncertainty of life, Ambitions of Ambiguity covers a wide range of feelings of finding yourself through the loss of control over life circumstances”
- FLAUNT
“the song warps deliciously like a mellower, more pop-tuned St. Vincent.”
- Austin Chronicle
“a well-crafted, pop album that builds on her diverse talents”
- Trend & Chaos
“Screen junkies will certainly recognize Hunt from her time on NBC’s Friday Night Lights, Fox’s Glee, and her many appearances on several major network sitcoms and in indie films, but these impressive credits are continually eclipsed by Hunt’s longer-standing musical talents.”
- KUTX
