‘Starlight,’ their latest single speaks of the aura of the night that cannot be explained but only felt. The experience brings about a certain internal peace and calm which resonates with many and this is exactly what the song is all about. The song that was conceptualised to address this marvellous escapism into the world of night where beautiful thoughts and ideas are translated, was released on September 18th. This is the band’s first Hindi single.
The modern pop-rock single took about 2 months for the band to make. It was recorded at their studio with the mixing and mastering done by Vivek Thomas.
Savaal wishes them many more such successes.
