Originating as the bedroom project and primary creative outlet of Jana Cushman, Darkswoon has since evolved into an energetic trio, with Jana Cushman crooning on vocals and guitar, Rachel Ellis stacking the electronic backbone of danceable beats and haunting synth lines, and all of it punctuated by the intelligent, rhythmic bass lines of Andrew Michael Potter. The band evokes old school goth and post punk of early 4AD label darlings, but maintains a modern edge and originality.
Their album ‘BIND‘ (February 9th 2019) is Darkswoon’s first release with Icy Cold Records, an independent label in cooperation with Manic Depression Records and Swiss Dark Nighs. The band can also be heard on the soundtrack for the newly released indie film ‘My Summer As A Goth’.
