Kavita Baliga Unveils Emotional Anthem "Lost in the Dark"

Singer-songwriter Kavita Baliga unveils her latest single, Lost in the Dark, a bold revival of the 1980s power ballad in 2025. The track channels the soaring emotion, anthemic energy, and slow dynamic build that defined the era, updated with a contemporary perspective and Baliga’s signature voice.

Featuring Grammy-winning guitarist Michael Thompson and 33x Grammywinning/ nominated producer/engineer Craig Bauer, the track blends smooth vocals juxtaposed by Thompson’s electric guitar power chords, lush harmonies, and vibey atmospheric synths into a cinematic, empowering experience. The single is available on all streaming platforms starting August 29, with a full promotional campaign including music video promotional clips, social media storytelling, press outreach, and a For Your Consideration submission to the 2026 Grammy Awards in the Alternative Music Performance category.

“Lost in the Dark is my love letter to the power ballads that shaped me,” says Baliga. “In today’s turbulent unjust world, it’s a reminder that music can make us feel joyful, empowered, and alive.”‍

“Lost in the Dark”Lyrics
Written by Kavita Baliga

Lying here dreaming in color
Counting stars that never fall
The echoes are soft, swirling around
And it feels like, I’ll risk it all.

Falling deep, caught in the static
A velvet voice whispers in my ear
You say it’s time to go, to reveal
And let myself shine.

Lost in the dark, chasing a flame
Do you feel like I do?
It pulls at my heart, like the winds of change
All the way, all the way, all the way

Drifting slow lost in rhythm
A gentle nudge that calms the fear
Whispering you’re where you belong hmm.
And it feels like, I found my song.

You tell me the secret
And it’s spreading over me like a virus
I’ll follow you down, take me slow
The shadows watch and grow, the lights down low.

Lost in the dark, chasing a flame
Do you feel like I do?
It pulls at my heart, like the winds of change
All the way, all the way, all the way

Lost in the dark, chasing a flame
Do you feel like I do?
It pulls at my heart, like the winds of change
All the way, all the way, all the way

All the way all the way all the way
