DoomFolk StarterKit is the songwriting project of Nashville, TN based David Swick. When DoomFolk StarterKit began, Swick would write and record a song on iphone garageband in one hour and then release it on Bandcamp, no matter what the end result, as an exercise in trusting instincts and eliminating self-editing tendencies.
In the spring of 2020, DoomFolk StarterKit released SleepyGhost, a 5 song ep written and recorded in a 24hr period on the themes of conflict avoidance and confronting apathy. Since then, Swick has teamed up with Nashville’s Like You Mean It Records and released a series of singles and covers of <a href="spotify:artist:2H5elA2mJKrHmqkN9GSfkz" data-name="Gillian Welch">Gillian Welch</a>'s "Look At Miss Ohio" and <a href="spotify:artist:4YIMPSc3zZLRwe4Ujaxjce" data-name="Advance Base">Advance Base</a>'s "Christmas in Nightmare City."
In 2021, DoomFolk StarterKit released SunFaded, a 7-song instrumental tribute to the Autumnal Equinox along with accompanying poems. Continuing the tributary series, Swick's new instrumental album "Sundown" celebrates the Winter Solstice with an emphasis on winter and holiday traditions. The album prominently features mandolin performances by Brian Macdonald (<a href="spotify:artist:6uV2cOu6PbLzYNQyxPo9iu" data-name="Victor Mucho">Victor Mucho</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3wWtfT7S2uVJJ3hGZlOLkZ" data-name="Judah & the Lion">Judah & the Lion</a>).
