about
New Silver Girl reveal the second cut from their forthcoming debut album.
As described by New Silver Girl frontman Olli Happonen, “Starlight City’ is a danceable rock tune about prime movers behind the words and the social theatre of love affairs. A shoestring euphoria on the dirty alleys of Kallio in Helsinki.”
The debut album from New Silver Girl drops late October via Soliti. The album was recorded in Berlin’s famed Hansa Studios and produced by Gordon Raphael (The Strokes, Regina Spektor, Hinds).

”Starlight city my town full of light
Starlight city don’t let me down tonight
Milk and honey running down the hills
Left out lover days of diamond mills
Dead end story this waiting thrills
I saw you standing there
Starlight city my town full of light
Starlight city don’t let me down tonight
Breaking stars shoot in limelight
One never shines through the city lights
I need a lover angelic eyes
I saw you standing there
Starlight city my town full of light
Starlight city don’t let me down tonight
We can split our wedding ring
We will fall for another swing
Taste of glory, the taste of sin
I saw you standing there
Starlight city my town full of light
Starlight city don’t let me down tonight
Starlight city my town full of light
Starlight city I got some time tonight”
