Canadian Indie-Pop Band Stars Suggests Nostalgia With Love

Category: Health
Duration: 00:36:31

Description:

Canadian indie-pop band Stars makes almost orchestral pop that has the bonus quality of being danceable. They’ve also got a knack for vividly descriptive storytelling, built around the dueling vocals of singers Torquil Campbell and Amy Millan. Formed in the early 2000’s, Stars has been “remarkably stable” over the years; they enjoy making one another laugh, they've written a play, and even fiction about themselves. 

Their ninth studio album, From Capelton Hill, covers pandemic shock, explores memory – perhaps with a sepia tinge, and has a strong sense of place. Stars plays remotely for the Soundcheck Podcast.

Stars plays a Bandcamp Live-streaming set at 5PM on May 27.

Set list: “To Build a Fire”, “Capelton Hill”, "Patterns"
