Influenced by Elizabeth Mitchell, Priscilla Ahn, Sufjan Stevens, Nick Drake. Starlight Cradle was born Aiko Tanaka, the only child of a Japanese-American boatwright and a librarian in Port Townsend, a Victorian seaport on the Puget Sound. Her lullabies are written on her grandfather's worn nylon-string guitar, seeking the quiet of her hometown amidst the noise of Seattle, where she now works in a small textile shop. These songs are fragments of a life spent between two worlds: the scent of cedar and salt from her father’s workshop, and the anonymous hum of a city that never fully feels like home.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The last boat from Point Defiance
Left a pattern in the foam.
I patch the holes your leaving made
With thread a different shade of home.

[Chorus]
Are you still you if I forget?
A sweater knit with fading thread.
Am I still me if you are gone?
A paper shadow of the dawn.

[Verse 2]
It's late October on the Sound,
Your coffee cup is on the sill.
"The fog is coming in," you said,
And now the air is damp and still.

[Chorus]
Are you still you if I forget?
A sweater knit with fading thread.
Am I still me if you are gone?
A paper shadow of the dawn.

[Outro]
The dyer's moth, it has no name.
The dyer's moth, it feels no flame.
