The Hanging Stars
Channelling the sounds of The Byrds, Big Star and The Flying Burrito Brothers, as well as hints of Mojave 3 and The Allah Las, The Hanging Stars mainline the dying embers of the early 70s psychedelic folk and cosmic country scenes. The band is comprised of songwriter, singer and guitarist Richard Olson, Paul Milne on bass, Paulie Cobra on drums, Patrick Ralla on banjo, guitar, keyboards and assorted instruments, with pedal steel courtesy of Joe Harvey-Whyte.
Touring with new album On A Golden Shore – their fifth album and their second for the pioneering Loose Music, following 2022’s Hollow Heart – finds them definitively themselves and presents a set of disparate songs whose fundamental linkage is the band that made them.
