DarthSaul Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 2 minutes ago, The Martini Police said: To me, it suggests an entirely (unlike the xx and Beach House) female-led band - 'they' and then 'she'. London Grammar is the first act that should be about next year that springs to mind from those words. 'They' can also be used as a singular (controversial) so could be any female act , FKA twigs would fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clasher Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 London Grammar was my first thought too. Would be ace for the tent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf Alice or Skunk Anansie spring to mind first... London Grammar I can also see the strength there by the way. Florence maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think it's more likely to mean a group. 'They' could refer to a group of songs too. This is just what I think is most likely and popped into my head first.

EV123 Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 Florence + the Machine was my first thought. But London Grammar seems a good shout too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I love Wolf Alice, but I can see Hannah Reid's voice being described as 'very special' much more than Ellie Rowsell's.

swelsbyuk Posted October 31, 2019 Report Share Posted October 31, 2019 Classics and moderns implies they've been around a while. That said, eighties vibes with actual sound shouts out Tame Impala to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
