Operator Please

Strongrooms, London, 18 April 2007

Written by Sophie Hill

Racy instrumental pop, a miniature Gossip meets Karen O. These kids are full of life and their stage presence is phenomenal, particularly the leading lady at a mere seventeen years old. A buzz of electronics fill the room as sparky electro violin meets the sometimes screeching (in a good way) voice of the lead, in and amongst delicate young piano fingers bringing tuneful rhythms to the overall sound through keyboard.

With spot on drum- beats, heads were bobbing and strings were twanging as the band faded in and out of tracks. Clapping, jumping, rocking their sweet little socks off. Their sounds: a crescendo of altering tempos. “It’s just a song, it’s just a song, it’s just a song, it’s just a song about ping-pong”. Speedy and excitable, radical and young, the band of five engaged the audience with an ultimately entrancing performance. Two For The Seconds and Crash Tragic were amongst other catchy tracks: Fresh and rhythmic these kids look dead set to go far.

‘It’s Just A Song About Ping-Pong’ will be released on Brille Records on 25 June 2007.

Yes Operator Please.
