WE SAY

Innovative and with a strong sense of identity, HowAboutBeth continues to impress with another dose of off-kilter contemporary roots pop. Since declaring ourselves as fans of Beth Mburu-Bowie back in December 2012 (with the outstanding Running), our passion has further intensified following first hand experiences of both her well defined solo show and as a towering vocalist on stage touring with Hercules and Love Affair. Having just returned from a substantial spate of Asia dates with Hercules et al, this ambitious songstress has been working with Friendly Fires and Thumpers, and was most recently found singing on Dan Le Sac's superb Caretaker. The North London based artist will now head back to the studio - where we hear rumours of exciting collaborations are on the cards - to finish her forthcoming Rabid Ballad EP, penned for completion early 2013.
