Starling - Misfit


Alas not a cover version of the Curiosity Killed The Cat ‘banger’ and therefore no opportunity to start a beret revival, but still a rather fascinating song all the same. “You can tell all the boys I don’t want to play,” Starling sings defiantly on Misfit, the b-side to the drop dead beautiful Take It Down, which introduced her to the world last month. If you haven’t heard that yet, then your ears are missing out on a treat, click here. Words like ghostly and brooding were designed for Misfit, this piano based song existing in its own unsettling world that would probably consist of a shadowy underground space lit by a solitary candle.

Starling plays her first headline show at Servant Jazz Quarters, London on the 29th October.
