New York based stellastarr*’s latest is what rock ’n’ roll music should sound like! This very cohesive and collaborative album delivers driving basslines and “purposefully messy and distinctive guitar sounds.” Frontman Shawn Christensen uses his voice as an instrument as well, changing moods on a dime while playfully soaring in and out of pitch and tone to capture the unique essence of every song on the record.

“[Our] first record was fun and bouncy,” says guitarist Michael Jurin. “The second was atmospheric and moody. On this one it felt right to make upbeat music.”
