The Gloria Darlings are a Seattle-based female indie-folk-grass band. An innovative string band like nothing ever seen or heard, they sing bright, vibrant, vocal harmonies to a one-of-a-kind courting dulcimer (one instrument both gals play at the same time)! These young ladies are both multi-instrumentalists: fiddle, mandolin, guitar, autoharp, and mountain dulcimer.
