My Life As A Moth returns with The Parade of the Starlet & the Broken Hearted, a 12-track album that digs into difficult experiences and the aftermath they can leave. Written during a period of personal change and therapy, the record touches on themes like manipulation, control and emotional fallout, but it’s not just about revisiting those moments. Instead, we witness the artist processing and moving through it, with the songs carrying an underlying message of resilience.
The album is built around the idea of the “starlet” and her surrounding cast of broken-hearted figures, a way of framing those experiences without making them feel too literal. It gives the record a thread to follow, with each track adding to a wider picture of someone trying to hold onto their sense of self in a world that feels off balance. As the artist puts it, “It’s about finding the rose in the mud, or the stars above a scrapyard—those small moments of beauty in the mess.”
That dynamic carries through into the sound as well. Produced with Ellie Mason and Keir Adamson, the album was recorded over the course of a year in a garden studio. The production leans into texture, with custom samples made from everyday objects bringing a slightly raw, tactile feel to the tracks. The album draws listeners right into the world My Life As A Moth has crafted, making it an experience that feels honest and immersive from start to finish.
