Burned By the Sun

Drawing influence from the likes of Animal Collective and Pavement, Darling prove that creativity thrives where least expected. Formed during a wayward, wooly period in their lives, this collection of indie rockers has since coalesced around the band, and have been thrilling audiences ever since.

A newly adapted trio version of the band still features Jeff's lilting melancholia, but improves its sonic attack when longtime friend Nick Voss and ex Pedal Steel Transmission drummer Don Ogilvie joined in 2007, adding a wider range of sounds and tightly focused rhythm section. Darling has played shows with The Robot Ate Me, Red Krayola, and Make Believe.
