Song of the Day # 1,300 Honey Has


A band made up of three London based sisters aged 10, 12 and 15. Produced by Pulp's Steve McKay and just signed to Rough Trade not unnaturally there's a naive quality to this, their first single. One comparison point might be The Shaggs but I think they're better than that and this reminds me more of the wonderful Roches. As Jarvis Cocker says about them: 

'Don't get too hung up on how old the people who made this record are: these songs speak  spirit that is inside all of us - it's just that it sometimes gets buried by age. It's nice to be reminded of this time-honoured truth: the Youth will save us.'
