GIVE US THREE REASONS WHY WE SHOULD TRACK DOWN, LISTEN AND DISCOVER YOUR MUSIC?

SO, WHEN IT ALL GOES RIGHT AND YOU’VE GOT A MANSION AND A SUPERMODEL GIRL/BOYFRIEND, WHAT WILL BE YOUR BIGGEST MUSICAL INDULGENCE?
A capo and plectrum made out of diamonds and gold – nice and shiny so that Laura doesn’t lose them… again.

We would have nothing. Nothing.

PLEASE CITE SOME INTER-BAND MUSICAL DIFFERENCES…
Not many really. Except Anna is a pretty good rapper and Laura is whiter than milk.

Sea Whores from Leeds are great and Hayley Gaftarnick’s voice is gorgeous.
