Worst Case Scenario

The Hoosiers

RCA

WE SAY

The Hoosiers are an English/Swedish three piece who we first featured on RotD last summer. Since then they've signed to RCA. Their first single isn't due out for another few months, but this is exactly the kind of quirky accessible pop that endeared them to us. Appearances on Dermot O' Leary's Radio 2 show and a New Band of the Day piece by Paul Lester in the Guardian are starting the plot at a nice pace. They supported The Fray recently and this track is lined up for iTunes SOTW next month. Everything we've heard from them so far is perfect, engaging and infectious pop.
