Punchy choruses are pretty much STORME's modus operandi, and new single "Starlight" doesn't disappoint.

"Starlight" sees frontwoman Amanda Liedberg deliver a typically powerful performance over a marching beat with twinkling synths and skittish electronic percussion. Production from James Rushent (Major Lazer, The Prodigy, Biffy Clyro) of Does It Offend You Yeah elevates the track to meet the sensational expectations generated by STORME's previous support from Spotify and others.

"'Starlight' was inspired by one of my best friends," Liedberg explains of the track. "For years she had no self-worth, putting herself down so many times [that] she became her own worst enemy. This song is for those who need that extra little confirmation, to say, 'you are great, you're doing well and are so much more than you think you are.'"

STORME play the Camden Assembly on 26 September. "Starlight" is out now.
