Darlin'

Darlin’ is a country duo of singer-songwriters Chloe Byars and Sarah Royse, whose honest storytelling and onstage chemistry have carried them from openers to headliners. Originally from Texas and Oklahoma, they met in a small college town, reconnected years later in New York City, and launched the project in 2025—quickly becoming regulars at NYC honky-tonks while recording debut tracks with industry professionals.

Cactus Cafe and University Unions materials frame their Austin dates as an intimate listening-room night: $10 tickets, all-ages songwriter focus, and a dual-voice country sound built for rooms that still sit still for a song. The pair has been working Oklahoma and Austin shows as they expand beyond the New York circuit.

Expect harmony-rich country and folk storytelling when Darlin’ plays Cactus Cafe and Texas songwriter rooms—two voices, honest songs, no spectacle required.
