Skyline by The Starlight Darlins
With their first studio EP, Skyline, queer Appalachian folk quartet The Starlight Darlins have introduced themselves as a band that isn’t afraid to dive deep. In shimmering four-part harmony, songwriters Gray Buchanan (they/them), Sage Christie (they/them), Emily Johnson-Erday (she/her), and Lauren Oxford (she/her) trace a path from loneliness to climate anger to finding comfort in friendship and vulnerability. Skyline is their testament to hope in the face of darkness.
