Album Notes & Community Reviews

Continuing to command significant popularity in Europe while remaining largely unknown in their native United States, the Seattle veterans delivered a remarkably lush, string-laden record[cite: 1]. 'Trail of Stars' heavily emphasizes sophisticated chamber pop orchestration over their earlier folk-rock grit, providing a sweeping, melancholic backdrop for the dual vocals of Chris Eckman and Carla Torgerson[cite: 1].
