Summer darling is the fulfillment and completion of loneliness. Where pain and sorrow become an equal to the joy that you would feel at a wedding. It’s why people cry even when they are happy.

Ben Heywood has made this circle in his life and articles it in his music with melodies and love. There is rare sincerity these days, but you wouldn’t know that by listening to Heywood’s songs.

Starting out in other bands as the drummer and only playing the guitar and piano in his spare time, Heywood has mastered his craft through time and endless sacrifice. When before you would hear an honest heart and innocent voice, now it is listening to an artist coming of age.

Listening to summer darling’s songs, you will find yourself provoked to think and perhaps remember something or someone that you thought was gone with all of the sincerity in life. Listen and remember a lost empire of dreamers. Join the empire again.
