Hearing “Yellow Moon” by Boston’s Highland Express for the first time was an absolutely unforgettable experience. Adding to my enchantment with this upbeat acoustic-folk tune was the realization that it was released as part of a new album that arrived late last year.

So, naturally, I listened to Stuck on Earth Together in its entirety. This is a beautiful album, I tell you. It showcases Highland Express’ warm blend of acoustic folk with hints of Americana and singer-songwriter sensibilities.

Back to “Yellow Moon”, I have to say it’s the kind of song that makes one fall in love with a whole genre of music. Personally, I was already into indie-folk and adjacent styles, but you get the point!

So good is “Yellow Moon” that we added it to our Folk Pop and Chill playlist. For more, follow Highland Express on Instagram.
