Running

HowAboutBeth

unsigned

WE SAY

Running is a glorious song that comes from somewhere altogether different, HowAboutBeth's layered soulful vocals and unconventional arrangements are more concerned with what feels right than what's the norm. 24-year-old Beth Mburu-Bowie already has impressive experience having performed and recorded with some phenomenal acts, including The Heavy, Pink Floyd,  Does It Offend You, Yeah?, Madness, The Royal Opera House and more recently a stint with the Pipettes. This is a striking demo, which in just two short minutes had us completely hooked and left us wanting to hear more.
