New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Welcome to the sonic landscape of Starlingville - a pop-infused Americana rock band hailing from Denmark. With influences ranging from
Texas and
Brandi Carlile to Keith Urban, Travis, and Sheryl Crow, Starlingville blends the heart of New Americana with the allure of pop and the grit of rock. Comprised of five incredibly talented members, Starlingville has been making waves in the Danish music scene:
Anders Andreassen: Frontman, Songwriter, Singer, Guitarist
Mettle: Backing Vocals, Percussion
Thomas Christiansen: Guitarist
Carsten Due: Bass
Jimmi Koldenborg: Drums
The genesis of Starlingville began with Anders Andreassen's musical pilgrimage to the United States—a trip that left a lasting imprint on his songwriting and, subsequently, the band's sound. During his visit to Connecticut, he met with mentors and recorded an EP, paving the way for a lifelong connection with U.S. artists and refining Starlingville's distinct musical ethos. Following his return to Denmark, Anders assembled a group for a release concert, leading to the formation of Starlingville.
Adding to the band's high-quality sound is its collaboration with renowned producer Lars Andresen at Medley Studio in Copenhagen—a leading Scandinavian studio with an impressive 20-year history, hosting major international artists like Keane, Prince, Radiohead, and Roxette. The debut album, "Welcome to Starlingville," and the hit single "Good Thing Going On" were both recorded at this esteemed studio, setting the production bar high.
