    About this ebook

    Companion story to A Demon in Midwinter

    Kris Starr, legendary former front man of iconic rock band Starrlight, and Justin Moore, the infamous New York Demon and Kris's former manager, don't agree to be interviewed very often. Today they have -- two years after the dramatic events that led to Justin's public outing as a demon, a story which forever entwined with Kris Starr's return to the spotlight, a brand-new critically acclaimed and commercially successful solo album, and on-air declarations of love.

    On the heels of their return from a triumphant sold-out tour, they've agreed to sit down, get coffee, and talk to the world. About the album, about family, about pro-demon activism and new jobs and ex-boyfriends and dealing with the past. Along the way, they'll cover new record labels, babysitting, classic rock inspiration, the rescuing of cats, and coffee versus tea ... and maybe a few topics they've never gone on record discussing.

    Like what exactly happened to Justin that night two years ago, and how a demon and a rock star manage to cope with both nightmares and daydreams coming true. And, of course, the importance of love songs.

      Love Songs for Every Day

      By K.L. Noone

      I arrive at Witch’s Brew, local favorite coffee-shop haunt of university students and writers, musicians and half-pixies, and the generally off-beat, on a cool and satiny rain-damp late morning, amid city steam and wet sidewalks and reflections. I’m here to talk to Justin Moore and Kris Starr, who’ve agreed to this interview on condition that they do it together. The New York Demon and the rock icon would be stories separately, having inadvertently changed the world at least two times over; they’re even better together, though, so of course that’s a yes.

      Kris Starr and Starrlight are synonymous with classic rock. Arena-filling power chords. Screaming packed stadiums. The kickoff of big hair and big guitars and inspiration for the whole next generation to learn every note in Little Black Dress on their own first instruments, alone in bedrooms or with friends in a borrowed garage.

      Justin Moore is something else altogether.

      Human and not. Paradoxically young—he’ll be turning thirty this year, almost exactly fifteen years younger than Kris Starr; their birthdays coincidentally fall within the same calendar week—and older than most of us in experience, in bruises, in unsought celebrity. A person who plucked everyone’s new-wave favorite bands out of the hopeful throng and got them on the radio; a person who, by virtue of existing as himself, has singlehandedly changed the way a lot of people think about demons.

      I find a corner spot in the coffee-shop, a tucked-away place with big inviting sofas and a street view out the tall glass windows. They’ll want to be comfortable, I figure.

      In the interests of full disclosure, and for anyone who doesn’t know: Justin Moore once wrote for this very magazine, though before my time, so we’ve never met. Freelance, not staff, but a reliable and reliably vibrant contributor. He’s been a music journalist, a well-regarded punk-rock critic, and an A&R—artists and repertoire—manager over at the historic Aubrey Records, and is now the attractive and passionate editorial face of Randolph Media’s new arts and entertainment division, launching magazines and book lines. He does not feed on souls to survive; he does not make bargains with humans for anything uncanny; he does not, as far as anyone knows, possess the secret to eternal life, although I have heard stories from older colleagues about Justin’s apparently miraculous inability to
