Sleeping States

Call it lo-fi, call it neo-folk, but don’t call it uninformed. The music of Sleeping States (the nom de plume of wunderkind Markland Starkie) is a confection of breathy harmonies and placid tones emerging from a toybox of 90’s dreampop, ambient electro, and the punk DIY ethic. Smart, experimental, fiercely independent, and — well, British.
