From the moment Darlingside took the stage at The Sinclair in Harvard Square, it was clear that this wasn’t just a concert; it was a holiday homecoming to be remembered. The renowned folk quartet-turned-sextet, known for their seamless harmonies and string-driven melodies, delivered an unforgettable performance—both from the stage and in-the-round from the middle of the audience, which will not soon be forgotten by anyone lucky enough to be in attendance. Darlingside, true to their reputation, was nothing short of magical. Even with new touring band members Molly Parden (bass, vocals), Ben Burns (drums, guitar), and Deni Hlavinka (keys, vocals),…

Anytime a hometown band returns to Boston, they’re bound to be met with exuberance. But to say the crowd at The Sinclair was excited to welcome Darlingside home would be a severe understatement. There was a palpable excitement throughout the venue last Thursday night, even before the lights dimmed to welcome the evening’s opening act Twain.

It seems pretty fitting that just days after releasing their new single “Do Something”—an open “letter to our con-man president”—The Ballroom Thieves headline the first ever musical performance at the Old South Meeting House in their home city of Boston.
