STOOSHE
The first rule of StooShe? There are no rules! Boisterous, mischievous, outgoing and witty, Alex Buggs, Courtney Rumbold and Karis Anderson are three brilliantly distinct personalities, as attainable as they are aspirational. Utterly uninterestedin following the formula, this London-based three-piece have not only disregarded the girlband code of conduct, they’ve ripped it into teeny tiny shreds. They swear, they talk about sex, they wear weird clothes, they have(gasp) opinions and they’re really funny. Oh and they can sing, really, really sing.
Ignoring the rules, writing their own manifesto and delivering a truly unique take on urban popmusic, StooShe are the sound of 2012.
