The Candlepark Stars

The Candlepark Stars is a musical project by composer Kerry Muzzey. Born out of a passion for post-rock music, The Candlepark Stars was created as a pen name to differentiate this work from Muzzey's other compositions. The project is known for its emotive soundscapes, often described as cinematic and evocative, drawing influences from bands like Explosions in the Sky and Mogwai. Their music typically features delicate piano riffs and warm guitar backdrops, creating an ambient atmosphere that invites listeners to immerse themselves in its beauty. Notable releases include "Very Big Sky," "Shimmer and Gold," and their final album, "The Odyssey" .

The Candlepark Stars have developed a loyal following over the years, despite initially being a personal experiment. Their music is designed to be a freeform, emotive experience, encouraging listeners to appreciate the small things in life. With a style that has evolved over time, The Candlepark Stars' music remains a testament to the power of post-rock to evoke emotions and create vivid sonic landscapes .
