Starsailor

An English alt-rock quartet whose debut single, "Fever," earned them the title of "Britain's best new band" in February 2001, Starsailor have since carved out their own distinctive niche on the U.K. scene with their earnestly passionate and melodic sound. They emerged to acclaim with 2001's Love Is Here, hitting number two in the U.K. and charting on the Billboard 200. They have remained chart favorites in Britain, continually reaching the Top 40 with albums like 2003's Silence Is Easy, 2005's On the Outside, and 2009's All the Plans -- albums that found them balancing '60s-inspired symphonic pop with an anthemic modern rock sensibility. Following an extended hiatus, they made their emotional return with 2017's All This Life and 2024's Where the Wild Things Grow.
