Quick, Before It Melts.

It blows my mind how I could have possibly overlooked Lucky Soul for so long. There's more than a couple of tracks sitting in my music library, downloaded from a number of the other blogs I check out each day, and I've always enjoyed the songs when their turn came up on the random playback, but it was yesterday that I realized I've never blogged about them. Right then, let's fix that:


London's Lucky Soul starts life in 2004, and have turned their love of Motown and St Etienne into fresh sounding modern pop. Their debut, The Great Unwanted, came out earlier this year on the band's own Ruffa Lane Records label. Don't let your initial reaction fool you--Lucky Soul are no Pipettes. They're authentic pop practitioners who are gimmick free in their sincerity. You'll be utterly smitten with "Lips Are Unhappy" I guarantee it.
