Interview with Sarah Darling 2025

In this interview, singer-songwriter Sarah Darling discusses her new single “Red Mustang,” which she describes as the spark that inspired her album Canyon. The track, drawn from a true story of driving a 1966 red Mustang down California’s 101, reflects her deep love of 1970s Laurel Canyon sounds and artists like Fleetwood Mac. Darling explains that Canyon was intentionally crafted to evoke a nostalgic, road-trip feeling that blends her country roots with the classic California vibe she grew up admiring. She also shares that she’s already sitting on around 50 new songs and plans to return to the studio later in the year to begin work on her next project. Darling opens up about her creative process, explaining that she often lets ideas sit before fully developing them, preferring to write when inspiration feels genuine rather than under pressure to finish a song in one day. Reflecting on her 15-year career, she notes how her sound has evolved from the dreamy orchestral feel of Dream Country to the folky harmonies of Canyon and expresses excitement for her next musical chapter. Currently touring the UK with Ward Thomas, she’s enjoying reconnecting with old friends on stage and looks ahead to more touring in 2025 and beyond. Looking to the future, Darling hopes to return to the UK for full-band headline shows and dreams of expanding her touring footprint to places like Canada and Australia.
