Stars & Letters Article on how Digital Music Revolution is Re-shaping Album Artwork
A few days ago was a very proud moment for us. We wrote an article about how digital music has empowers musicians and labels to experiment with new forms of album artwork, which was published on Music Think Tank and got picked up with Hypebot and countless other blogs. It’s just been an amazing last few days with hundreds of people tweeting about it and sharing it on Facebook. Thanks to everyone for showing an interest in our ideas! Much love xo
Hypebot sums up the article as follows:
With digital music, many felt that it deprived albums of its visual and tactile components. However, in Mark’s opinion, the digital music revolution is actually breathing new life into album artwork. Digital has changed the rules of what is considered album artwork. Read on about how the digital music revolution is changing album artwork on Music Think Tank.
“With much of our music being delivered as pure data, our artwork can now be anything we want it to be.”
Bandcamp Gives Stars & Letters Thumbs Up For Innovative Bundling
Bandcamp recently featured our moth/vial limited edition of GPSYMTH‘s debut album, Ripostes, and even gave a little shout-out to Misfit Mod. Awesome! They write:
“We love to hear of interesting, out of the ordinary, and innovative packages for sale on Bandcamp. Oh, and as I type, here’s a unique bundle I just learned of (surely a Bandcamp first,) from the Brooklyn-based Stars and Letters record label who are bundling A Madagascan Sunset Moth (Chrysiridia rhipheus) set in a glass vial with free download of the GYPSMYTH album. (…) Big shout to Stars and Letters, their Misfit Mod “Sugar C” single is a recent personal favorite.”
Thanks, Bandcamp! (BTW, your new homepage looks amazing!)

WILD Magazine Premieres new Misfit Mod Cover of TLC “No Scrubs”
Oooooo. WILD Magazine just premiered Misfit Mod’s stellar cover of TLC’s “No Scrubs”.
There are a number of indisputable, universal truths in life. How simple they are in theory, only to end up being incredibly difficult to practice. One such principle: “No Scrubs.” Misfit Mod, aka Sarah Kelleher, takes the eternal wisdom of TLC to heart on her new cover of the 1999 classic. The London-via-New Zealand artist’s haunting, stripped-down version sounds aptly weary, like it was recorded after a late night of fending off unworthy suitors. Kelleher surely deserves better; this cover follows the February release of her debut album Islands & Islands, a carefully measured collection of moody, atmospheric synth-pop.
Paper Magazine Debuts Misfit Mod “Cars” Video
Paper Magazine just debuted Misfit Mod’s new video for “Cars”! Hugs!! Big shout-out and thanks also to the wonderful and talented director, Ed Lust!
New Zealand-raised, London-based Sarah Kelleher worked as a gallery curator and audio engineer before adopting the name Misfit Mod and focusing on her own music. Last week, she released Islands & Islands, her first album of atmospheric synth-pop, on Brooklyn label Stars & Letters. In this video for the song “Cars,” a stiletto-wearing streetwalker stumbles through a city at night; kaleidoscopic camera tricks disorient the viewer. The song is airy and sparse, with a loop of Kelleher’s voice and a basic drumbeat as the only accompaniment.
