about
Baltimore's Hearts by Darts started as a recording project by Sei Petersen and Mike Evitts after the demise of their band Sharky. They began crafting songs from the ground up, drawing from a diverse range of influences including 60s soundtrack music, 80s shoegaze, 90s indie rock, and Julee Cruise's lovely Twin Peaks songs. With the addition of Wendy Weihs´ understated vocal style and intriguing lyrics (often referencing mathematical rules and impossible, far away locales), Hearts by Darts have succeeded in crafting a dream pop landscape that is simultaneously springtime and atmosphere, comforting and strange. After being left vocalist-less by Wendy's move to Los Angeles, HXD have recently begun working with a new singer on a new batch of songs that I understand lean heavily on 70s analog synth sounds.
