Singer, speaker, and creative coach Starling (Harriet Reardon) celebrated the release of her latest single, “Cool Girl”, with an intimate and emotionally charged launch event at The Groucho Club in Soho.

The evening brought together a curated guest list of editors, creatives, and cultural connectors for a powerful live performance, soulful conversation, and a first listen to the single, which marks a bold new chapter in Starling’s musical evolution.

Rooted in self-worth, creative confidence, and emotional truth, Cool Girl is an anthem for women ready to shed the pressure to please and reclaim their full complexity. Starling’s stripped-back vocals and sharp lyricism offered a resonant counterpoint to today’s polished pop landscape, and the performance was met with a standing ovation in the iconic private club’s drawing room.

Alongside the performance, guests enjoyed curated cocktails, community moments, and an intimate Q&A with the artist, who spoke candidly about creative identity, emotional survival, and why so many women are ready for music that reflects their real lives, not just their Instagram feeds.

The event follows the momentum of Starling’s Queen Summer single launch in July, and comes ahead of her North America & UK tour this fall.
