Chloe Star unleashes alt-rock honesty of ‘Wasted Youth’


Fierce alternative soundscapes and refreshing honesty are both delivered in spades on Chloe Star’s most recent track ‘Wasted Youth’. Blending glittery pop sensibilities filled with breezy guitar riffs and steady drum pulses in the verses with roaring, anthemic performances drenched in distortion for the chorus, Chloe pours a heartfelt realism into her words. Showing her unbridled emotions as she rips through powerful cries, the instrumentation does everything to match her energy, cranking up the intensity to turn the single into an at-home stadium experience.

Reflecting on the story behind the single, Chloe shares, “The process of writing Wasted Youth was definitely a vulnerable session. I finally felt like I was able to share/talk about this experience on a bigger scale. The song is about how I was "gooned" at 16 and taken to a wilderness treatment program for 3 months. In the writing, I share my real experiences of what went on while being out there. I wanted the listener to really be able to visually understand what went on and I feel like that was properly executed. I am really excited to share the music video because I feel like that will give a better understanding of what the song is about.

In the video I relive the entire experience. The process of shooting the music video was definitely tough. It brought up a lot of different emotions and truly at the end of it, it felt like closure from this period. This project has given me the opportunity to share my story and move through all the kept emotions. Now I get to share my story with the world and connect with people who relate to having a wasted youth.”

LA-based rising star, Chloe Star, is an artist sharing her authentic self through music. Starting out journaling, then moving to poetry, and then learning piano and guitar to put her words to melodies, Chloe’s approach is rooted in genuine lyricism. Aside from her singing and songwriting talents, Chloe is also a visual artist, transforming her songs into stunning on-screen storytelling. With a debut EP on the horizon, Chloe is most certainly one to watch.
