Polica

Polica, the super slick electronic pop-soul outfit fronted by ice cool vocalist Channy Leanagh, rapidly become one of 2012's most talked about bands after a whirlwind SXSW. Drowned In Sound named them band of the festival and they were favourites for many others including The Times and The Telegraph. Their single 'Dark Star' was a radio hit, getting 'Record Of The Week' accolades from Huw Stephens and Fearne Cotton, as well as Zane Lowe's 'Album of the Week' for the addictive Give You The Ghost.

"You could waste days trying to define the genre in which Polica operate, but actually it's just pop – incredibly beautiful – pop" - The Sunday Times
