VIVIAN GIRLS (Brooklyn, NY)

In The Red label’s hot rockets Vivian Girls are all set for their first UK tour, starting off their Yuletide tour on December 2.

“The Brooklyn-based Henry Darger-citing girl-gang trio, who released their eponymous (and now sold out) debut through the LA label of lo-fi garage renown earlier this year, have now managed to rack up comparisons to everyone from the Ronettes through to the Vaselines” – drownedinsound.com

“Within seconds of hearing their seductive three-part girl group vocal harmonies lushly interwoven with chest-pounding rhythms of beautiful feedback, it's obvious that their songs are hard to resist, especially if you find yourself keen on the mid-80s noise pop conglomerate of Jesus & Mary Chain, The Vaselines, Black Tambourine, and Shop Assistants. The echo-filled songs resonate with such sweetness and provocative noise, that it culminates into a wall of beautiful vocals interplayed with a simple yet timeless beat that will have no problem crossing over genre lines and warming up to virtually anyone with an ounce of good taste.”
