Lord Huron & Ben Schneider - Music for The Starling Girl (Score & Music from the Original Motion Picture) (2023) Hi Res

Lord Huron vocalist/guitarist Ben Schneider provides the soundtrack of the new film The Starling Girl, which features the a new single from the band entitled "Ace Up My Sleeve". The film was written and directed by Laurel Parmet and stars Eliza Scanlan, Lewis Pullman, Wrenn Schmidt, Austin Abrams, and Jimmi Simpson.

“Being asked to compose a song that actually plays a role in the story is a dream come true for a songwriter,” Lord Huron’s vocalist and guitarist Ben Schneider said. “To have the song function in service of the narrative of such a beautiful film in that way is really special.”

The track channels classic country, feeding it through a modern, alternative prism, combining slide guitar and breezy strumming as Schneider sings: “I can’t lose/There’s an ace up my sleeve.”

The film’s score was also created by the musician, marking the first time he has composed the score for a major motion picture.
