After independently embarking on careers in the thriving Northampton, MA music scene and crossing paths along the way, singer-songwriter Heather Maloney and indie folk quartet Darlingside have teamed up for their first collaborative release. Woodstock, their joint E.P. released on March 11, features two originals each from Maloney and Darlingside, as well as a cover of Joni Mitchell’s “Woodstock.”

Heather Maloney is a western Massachusetts-based artist who has received numerous accolades for her startlingly soulful voice and literate songwriting exploring themes of spirituality, transformation, and impermanence.

Darlingside is a Massachusetts-based indie folk quartet. With four distinct voices clustered around a single microphone, their tightly arranged tunes draw from the unexpected, featuring strains of bluegrass, classical, and barbershop. Accompanied by an arsenal of classical strings, guitars, mandolin, and percussion, these four close friends swap instruments from song to song, keeping audiences across the country on the edge of their seats.
