Ahaaa crappy recording programs, you will never beat mee!!! Even if I did have to upload the song twice... :o\ Ah well, here's another female fronted pop band for you.
I first heard about Halflight a few years ago when the drummer for one of my favourite bands played on their first EP release. Previously the singer had been the guitarist in a band called Jylt who were supposed to be pretty good until their singer passed away a couple years ago. I ain't saying they're not still good now, just.. you have to wait a few years for the Kurt Cobain effect to kick in, don't ya? Five years, they'll be huge. Or something. Anyway, I guess guitarist Sarah Howells couldnt't wait that long cos she grabbed a few mates, formed a new band and started recording again.
Halflight have come on a little since their first EP. They got their own drummer for a start (Ed: my bad, they're still looking for one :oP ), and during a trip to a radio station we here in England like to call "Unavailable", they recorded this song Worship for BBC Radio Wales. I never heard the original airing but this thing is still available on Last.fm and I loved it the first time I heard it. Make sure to check out their newest stuff on MySpace if you like it.
