Instar, out now!
"No tepid, dip-a-toe-in-the-water introduction, the six-track Instar is the product of a theater-trained vocalist and music student at Bennington College. A natural mezzo-soprano, Golden puts what she describes as a "sapphic spin" on indie pop-- It's a candy-coated mix of indie pop and Americana, blended with skill by a capable and intriguing new songwriter."
-- Chris Farnsworth, Seven Days
"Underlined by sensitive, articulate music, Instar is rendered even more gorgeously appealing by the satiny voice of Lilly Golden."
-- Randy Radic, V13 Media
"Instar encapsulates the journey of youthful discovery as well as vulnerable and heartfelt emotion. It beautifully balances these aspects in a playful yet authentic manner. The entire EP was recorded in her childhood bedroom, and boldly showcases the highs and lows that take place during young adulthood."
-- Kevin Cook, Muze.fm

Bio//
Lilly Golden (she/her) is a Vermont based singer-songwriter, currently working on her debut EP!
Her music puts a bubbly, sapphic spin on indie pop, with a clear-toned, lyrical mezzo-soprano voice that shines against the usual breathiness of the genre. Her songs feature complex harmonies and her lyrics are romantic pocket-sized memoirs that read as a glance into a private diary. Lilly’s versatility spans from pop hit to folk ballad, and her lyrical themes explore coming of age and navigating relationships in the green mountains. The quality of her musical style as well as simply her character draws you up a chair to sit before her fire.
She is currently finishing her degree in songwriting, voice, and music at Bennington College. She performs both as a solo act and as the front woman of Lilly Golden and the Stars!
