Starling
Large It

Distiller Records

WE SAY

We first featured Starling at the end of 2015 with her sublime song Take It Down. Recently she’s begun to musically evolve in a different direction, with lyrics that show a new defiance in her work. Now with a new EP The Body due at the end of this month, she follows up her recent strong single No Rest For The Wicked (which was supported by Radio 1 and Radio X) with this bold and confident song, co-written with the legendary Eg White, who’s noted for his recent work for Adele and Florence & The Machine among others. Clash recently premiered the song and other online support for her music to date has included The Line of Best Fit, Wonderland Magazine, Disco Naiveté, The Most Radicalist, Kick Kick Snare, When The Gramophone Rings and more. There’s a London headline gig on the way at The Waiting Room on May 9, where you’ll see a very different artist to the one that first emerged 18 months ago. Gone is the timid performer, still finding her feet, and in comes a liberated lady seemingly much more at ease about opening up her world to us all, warts and all. Watch her closely.
