Starling Electric is an indie pop/rock band that emanates a unique blend of melodic sensibilities and a penchant for nostalgic songcraft. Hailing originally from Ann Arbor, Michigan, the group was formed in the early 2000s by principal songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Caleb Dillon. Known for their intricate arrangements and eclectic influences ranging from 1960s pop to 1970s rock, Starling Electric infuses their compositions with a contemporary twist that has garnered them a dedicated following.

The band’s discography showcases their evolution as both songwriters and sonic experimenters. Their album "Clouded Staircase," a collection that weaves harmonious pop tunes with a psychedelic flair, put them on the map with a broader audience. It carved a niche that they would continue to explore and refine in subsequent releases. The follow-up efforts, "Electric Company" and "Castlevania," solidify the band's reputation for crafting catchy, yet complex, music layered with lush vocal harmonies and rich instrumentation. Their latest release, "I Can't Believe I Hate the Whole Thing," is a reflection of the band's maturity and introspective lyrical depth, underscoring why Starling Electric remains a cherished gem within the indie music scene.
