Bio
BRIEF
The Starlight Darlins are a queer Appalachian folk band featuring Emily Johnson-Erday (she/her) on banjo, Gray Buchanan (they/them) on fiddle, Sage Christie (they/he) on guitar, and Lauren Oxford (she/her) on bodhrán. All four Darlins are award-winning songwriters with their own distinct influences, but their collective sound is one that blurs the borders of genres while still remaining rooted in traditional music. Known for their trademark four-part harmonies, powerful original songs, and intricate arrangements, the Darlins have left audiences spellbound from coast to coast.
Skyline, their first studio EP, is available everywhere you listen to music.

Reviews
“The harmonies alone make this album an essential listen, but the depth of the songwriting and the precision of the arrangements elevate Skyline into something even more rare: a modern folk record that feels both timeless and urgent. You’ll come for the voices, but listen to the words.” - John McDaid
“I hope you have those headphones on, and be prepared for chills and goosebumps." - David Schipper
