Three Music Tips for 2012 (1/3)

No. 3 - Strangers

London trio, Strangers have released three EPS during the course of 2011, each one building on the previous and demonstrate a band growing in confidence, stature and ideas.

The new EP3 and its lead single "Promises" (described by The Guardians Paul Lester as a futurist version of Elton John & Kiki Dees "Don´t Go Breaking My Heart) feature the vocal talents of Lara Smiles and obvious reference points are best bits of a blend of the sounds of White Lies and Hurts.

Check out the covers of Japan's "Ghosts" and Lana del Rey´s "Video Games" on the groups You Tube page, both these covers give an insight to the influences of a group we'll certainly be hearing more from in 2012.
