WNRN and C-Ville Weekly Present We Are Star Children

A CD Release Party with The Extraordinaires and Special Guest Kate Bollinger

We Are Star Children is a 6-piece "adventure pop" band from Charlottesville, VA. They veer in and out of conventional rock/pop arrangement: horn and synth cascade over a surging rhythm section, brazen enough to share lead with the advancing wall of rich harmony vocals. In their recordings and live shows alike, they continually dance with beauty and mayhem, occasionally spinning into a contemplative waltz or tip-toeing down an eerie alley, but ultimately whipping the crowd into a full froth. They frequent debaucherous fundraisers, host homegrown shows in bookstores, and bring down the house whenever they appear on stage.

We Are Star Children’s first LP, With Arrows, is anthemic and antic, propulsive and lyrically surreal: "adventure pop" at its finest. The album will keep you guessing, punctuating its opulent stretches of clear, dark sky with flares of revelry; the songs pull you into thickets of sonic entanglement, then break through to deeper spaces. Now that With Arrows is here, the age of Star Children is upon us and beckons another toast.
