The Canadian invasion strikes again. Stars hails from Montreal — their recent album is In Our Bedroom After the War. Band members Torquil Campbell and Amy Millan explain how they balance their dark lyrics with their lush sound. And they play live in Studio 360.

Do you support journalism that strengthens our democracy?

At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.

Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
