Crystal Stilts is an American post punk band hailing from Brooklyn, New York City. With their formation in 2003, they have established themselves as a prominent force in the music scene. Known for their unique sound and captivating performances, Crystal Stilts continues to push boundaries and captivate audiences worldwide.
With influences ranging from 1960s garage rock to psychedelic pop, Crystal Stilts has crafted a distinct sound that sets them apart from other bands. Their music combines catchy melodies with introspective lyrics, creating a mesmerizing experience for listeners.
Having released several critically acclaimed albums and EPs over the years, Crystal Stilts has garnered a dedicated fan base and received praise from both fans and critics alike. Their live shows are known for their energy and raw emotion, leaving audiences craving more.

Recorded in the damp spring of 2013, this newest disc finds the group expanding their palette to include strings, percussion, and synthesizers, to create a record that is both more sonically adventurous and a more personal and humane statement than their previous work. On tracks such as "Star Crawl" and "Sticks and Stones", Hargett's vocals have a striking clarity and soulfulness, while the musical arrangements throughout display a sophistication that may be surprising to those who previously thought of the band as "lo-fi". Meanwhile, album opener "Spirit in Front of Me" and the ripping "Future Folklore" showcase the psychedelic grit that has long been a trademark sound.
