[from sl records]: based in glasgow, belonging nowhere, the starlets are a melancholy pop group with ambitions to be cheerful. a diverse range of influences, from the velvet underground via the go-betweens and prefab sprout to judy garland, have all inspired the band’s sound. a sound that you can hear on their debut album, 'surely tomorrow you’ll feel blue.'
since it’s release in 2002 they’ve played gigs across scotland, making the occasional trip down south, which have included gigs at the garage in london, leeds, nottingham and in the city in manchester. over the years they’ve also played at t in the park and go north in aberdeen.
