Alex Starling Embarks on New Musical Expedition with “Maybe We Lost It”

The London-based Artist Returns with a Cinematic Synth Ballad that Captures the Essence of Transformation and Disillusionment.

London-based singer-songwriter Alex Starling has left an indelible mark on the music industry with his ethereal synth-pop tunes. Recently, he has unveiled his latest single, “Maybe We Lost It,” slated for release on December 1st, 2024. Starling’s soft, captivating vocals, reminiscent of his namesake bird’s flight, have caught the attention of many, as highlighted by Aesthetica Magazine. This new cinematic synth ballad is a poignant exploration of change and the haunting feeling of no longer recognising the people or life you once knew.

Alex Starling’s journey in the music industry is nothing short of remarkable. Initially, he played a crucial role in the early successes of Ou Est Le Swimming Pool. However, after the tragic passing of their lead singer, Charlie Haddon, in 2010, Alex embarked on a solo career that took him to Germany and the U.S. His formation of The Ghosts brought more accolades, with The Guardian praising their “soaring and sublime synth-pop,” and MIXMAG suggesting they “could just be your next favourite band.”
