Claude says:Zac Little leads this Columbus folk rock crew through a wide palette of acoustic instruments — balalaika, dulcimer, mandolin — alongside synthesizers and electric guitars, all produced by Mike Mogis at ARC Studios in Omaha. Dark Arc is their second album, released on ANTI- in 2014, and it leans into that collision of Appalachian textures and indie rock structures. You gave it a brief spin in mid-2026 — "Happy Alone" and "Only The Young Die Good" caught your ear, but it didn't stick around long enough to become a fixture.
