Darling

About Me

Bio:

Some of us used to live in Indiana. Now we live in Pennsylvania. Darling used to be one guy. Then there were 4. Then there were 3. Now there are 2. Wait, no. There are 3. Wait, no. 4. We like to spend our Wednesday night at Winglestown devouring buffalo wings as if they were currency. No, not currency. Sorry.

Darling used to sound more like the Foo Fighters. Now we seem to sound more like the Get Up Kids or something. Depends on what's in the CD player when the songs are being written, I suppose. Go ahead and check out our first album, Welcome the Ghost. Meanwhile, we're on the cusp of a new release that is way better.

Who needs another guitarist? Not us!

Please welcome Philbot 5000. He will shred his way into your heart. Like the Shredder. Except he doesn't hate turtles. Or rats. Or pizza.
