Helen Stellar is a Los Angeles–based indie band, formed in Chicago in the early 2000s, whose dreamy, reverb-washed sound fuses shoegaze textures with soaring, melancholic pop. Fronted by vocalist/guitarist Jim Evens alongside Clif Clehouse, Dustin Robles, and later Eli Lhymn, they first drew wide attention when KCRW’s Nic Harcourt championed their early EPs, leading to high-profile placements such as “IO (This Time Around)” in Cameron Crowe’s Elizabethtown, Henry Poole Is Here, and Love Happens, and an on-screen appearance in Gregg Araki’s Kaboom. Their 2010 album If the Stars Could Speak, They Would Have Your Voice solidified their reputation for luminous guitar work and emotional atmospherics, a sound they expanded in 2023 with the EP Moonlight Amnesia, whose songs introduced a striking sense of urgency—propulsive rhythms, sharper edges, and a restless emotional undercurrent—while still preserving the band’s signature dream-rock glow.
