-----
the house is hollow
in the quiet afterglow
i have tried to let you go
i have tried to let you go

through the heat and bitter cold
all our worldly goods erode
as i try to let you go
i have tried to let you go

they don't understand
they don't understand
they don't want to

now the vines of time grow
feel them tighten round my throat
as i try to let you go
i have tried to let you go

they don't understand
they don't understand
they don't want to

nights are long
in the quiet afterglow
and all our dreams echo
i have tried to let you go
but no one's checking up
cause no one really wants to know
how i have been, no
i have tried to let you
tried to let you go

they don't understand
they don't understand
they don't want to

beg my heart to last
(you don't understand)
beg my heart to last
(you don't understand)
beg my heart to last
(you don't understand)

beg my heart to last
(you don't understand)
beg my heart to last
(you don't understand)
beg my heart to last
(they don't understand)

you don't understand
you don't understand
you don't understand

in the quiet afterglow
i have tried to let you go
i have tried to let you go

The nostalgic tones of a Juno-106 combine with ambient layers, sparkling guitars, and airy, bittersweet vocals to define Portland dream pop band Starover Blue. Their latest single, “Larkspur,” showcases a different side of the group, taking inspiration from heavier-hitting indie rock versus the synth textures of 2019 LP Ordinary Magic and 2016 debut Spacegeist. A new LP is slated for 2023 release.

Founding members Kendall Sallay and Dirk Milotz began their musical partnership in 2007 in the San Jose State University music department and relocated the group to Portland in 2016. Live, the six-piece showcases lush vocal harmonies and pulls from a multi-faceted discography, appealing to fans of acts such as Cocteau Twins, Big Thief, Wye Oak, Beach House, The Joy Formidable, The Velvet Teen, Low Roar, and The Antlers.
