Starling returns with new single 'No Leader'

Following on from the release of her much-loved EPs 'The Heart’', ‘'The Body’' and ‘'The Soul' over the last few years, Starling is back once again to share a stunning new single.

The new track 'No Leader' is the first taste of her long-awaited debut studio album 'To Be Alive', which is set to land sometime in the near future.

Speaking about her return, she said, "I had taken ayahuasca in the forest and it taught me that in all the time I had been looking to others for answers I should have been looking to myself. In a constant quest to find myself, to understand meaning, life and my purpose I tried every therapy, meditation, and immersion possible and in this started to realise, I was the one I was looking for. Every type of spiritual excursion was had from vipassana to trauma therapy to kundalini and it guided me to me. This is the truth. When no one is here to guide us, or what we are told doesn't resonate, we must guide ourselves... and be our own leader."
