Live vid from Latitude Festival: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=sKlJmxyjQWg
A folk/rock band whose music encompasses a sense of melody and structure beyond they tender years. Since playing an outstanding show at Tony Wilson's In the City Festival last year they've been turning heads, swelling hearts and creating quite a stir within the industry.
The band played the Festival circuit during the summer including the Great Escape and Latitude and they've recently inked a deal with Big Life Artist Management (The Verve/Klaxons/The Futureheads). 2009 is looking good for this talented band.

An indie/pop piano-driven and female-led band based in the Home Counties. They produce profoundly melodic music that pricks up your ears with an angelic vocal. The year has seen the band become managed by B-Unique and support The Walkmen on their European tour.
