================================
With her unmistakable voice and unflinching honesty, Rachael Yamagata has built a reputation as one of indie music’s most evocative singer-songwriters. Emerging in the early 2000s with her acclaimed debut Happenstance, she’s since released a string of beloved albums — including Elephants…Teeth Sinking Into Heart, Chesapeake, and Tightrope Walker — earning a loyal following for her raw lyricism and cinematic live shows.
Her new album, Starlit Alchemy (2025), marks her first LP in nearly a decade and her most intentional work yet. Written both before and during 2020, and recorded largely in her Catskills home studio, the record is a journey through grief, resilience, and transformation. Sequenced as a continuous, immersive experience, it blends ambient textures, live warmth, and full-band arrangements into a soundtrack for personal rebirth.
A fiercely independent artist, Yamagata has self-managed for over 13 years, forging her own path outside the major label system. Along the way, she’s collaborated with Liz Phair, Ray LaMontagne, Bright Eyes, Toots and The Maytals, and more, while cultivating a body of work that’s both intimate and expansive.
With Starlit Alchemy, Yamagata invites listeners into a world where sorrow and beauty coexist — music as both compass and salve.
