Irish band Under Starling is set to release their highly anticipated new single, ‘Selkie,’ on July 26th. Following the critical acclaim received for their March 2024 single ‘Changeling,’ ‘Selkie’ is expected to further solidify the band’s reputation for delivering compelling and innovative music.
For this campaign, the band have teamed up with Seal Rescue Ireland who help preserve the native seal population in Ireland. All profits made from song sales and collaborative merch will go directly to this amazing charity, preserving the myth of the selkie.
Under Starling is an alternative rock band from Ireland known for their dynamic and unique sound, characterized by reverb, delay, and chorus effects. Drawing inspiration from The Cranberries, Kings of Leon, and U2, they blend euphoric melodies with a gritty edge.
This indie/alternative rock song with folk rock undertones delves into the challenges of long-distance relationships, skillfully blending fiction and reality through the ancient Selkie myth to symbolise hope and connection.
“Selkie” narrates an inspiring tale where the protagonist, upon receiving a seal skin from a Selkie, embarks on a watery journey to reunite with their beloved. This lyrical exploration captures the belief that love can transcend great distances, embodying themes of growth, resilience, and acceptance. Against the majestic ocean backdrop, “Selkie” celebrates the profound bond between two souls weathering life’s storms.
