While Markland Starkies solo release,
There the Open Spaces (
Misra), never sounds as if the English born musician desires to reach out to any such place, preferring instead to meander in classic, bedroom form, Starkies project,
Sleeping States, will be getting a very public treatment this fall, as he and his band embark on a debut trek of the US. Sharing the stage with the likes of Voxtrot, Maps, Little Ones, and Helio Sequence along the way, fans of the hushed and unsettling nature of his music will be able to catch Starkie in many a major market in the coming weeks.
