Lindsey Stirling's seventh album, Duality, showcases her genre-defying virtuosity and artistic evolution, blending intricate Celtic influences with innovative pop sounds.
Few artists encapsulate boundless creativity like Lindsey Stirling. Renowned for her genre-defying virtuosity on the electronic violin, this multi-award-winning musician also mesmerizes audiences with her remarkable dancing skills, seamlessly integrating them into her spectacular live shows. Stirling's relentless touring schedule has seen her consistently sell out iconic venues worldwide. Beyond music, she’s a New York Times bestselling author and the creator of her own comic book.
With her seventh full-length album, Duality, the platinum-selling star pushes her boundaries further, embracing a newfound freedom in her songwriting. This visionary project is a meditation on inner wisdom, personal strength, and the fluidity of identity, marking Stirling’s most sonically adventurous and emotionally rich album to date.
Produced in collaboration with talents like Graham Muron (Thirty Seconds to Mars, Skrillex) and Lucky West (Walk the Moon, Dreamers), Duality includes twelve tracks that showcase Stirling’s refined musicality and ability to craft deeply expressive melodies. The album's first side is characterized by a grand and intricate sound, influenced by Celtic music and global genres, while side two ventures into an innovative blend of left-of-center pop. Highlights include “Eye Of The Untold Her,” an epic track produced by Mako, a musician/producer known for his work with Riot Games, and co-written with Steve Mazzaro, a composer who has collaborated with Hans Zimmer. Other tracks reveal her pop sensibilities - like “Inner Gold,” featuring alt-pop artist Royal & the Serpent, and “Survive,” which includes a collaboration with Walk off the Earth’s Sarah Blackwood and an interpolation of Gloria Gaynor’s classic “I Will Survive.”
A profoundly imaginative songwriter, Lindsey Stirling's previous works include high-concept albums such as 2019’s Artemis, which topped Billboard’s Top Dance/Electronic Albums chart. With Duality, she navigates a rich soundscape to explore themes of intuition and truth. Stirling reflects, “We’re all magical beings with immense spirit and potential, but societal expectations often make us feel constrained. I hope these songs help people feel free, empowered, and more connected to their true selves. I want to remind everyone that, despite the world’s attempts to tame us, that magic always resides within you.”
