Email this story Printable version Recently longlisted for the BBC Sound of 2012, the futuristic trio Stooshe will release their second single 'Love Me' on March 5th on Warner Bros. Records.
'Love Me' follows their debut single 'Betty Woz Gone' which became YouTube's most viewed music video in the UK when it received 100,000 views on the day of its initial upload.
Produced by Future Cut (Lily Allen, Professor Green, Wretch32), 'Love Me' bursts with Stooshe's playful lyrics, fiercely independent attitude and another irresistible, bold hook. Complementing the trio's tight, characteristic vocals is a guest rap courtesy of Travie McCoy, who enjoyed a huge solo hit with his Bruno Mars collaboration 'Billionaire', four Top 10 hits with his band Gym Class Heroes and another as guest on Taio Cruz's single 'Higher'.
News of Stooshe's inclusion in the BBC Sound of 2012 longlist is just one of a number of indicators of their impending mainstream breakthrough. They've received over a million online views split between their YouTube site and special sessions recorded for iD, SBTV, MTV and Virgin, while positive press coverage has come from a diverse array of publications including The Independent, The Daily Star, RWD, The Mirror and Top of the Pops. Their popularity amongst other artist was demonstrated when their video for 'Betty Woz Gone' won the approval of Ed Sheeran, Rizzle Kicks and Wretch 32.
Boisterous, mischievous, outgoing and witty, Alex Buggs, Courtney Rumbold and Karis Anderson are three brilliantly distinct personalities, as attainable as they are aspirational. Doing away with outdated ideas, when it comes to who they are and the music they make, Stooshe are determinedly deconstructing stereotypes. Packed full of provocative, punchy wordplay, cutting-edge choruses and three incredible vocals, their sound is as bold as it is edgy. Filling a huge gap in the girl band market, Stooshe deliver a '90s sensibility with a futuristic sound.
