Yet another British band, London Grammar, have been buzzing from across the Pond.  Their debut EP Metal & Dust was released in February, and their debut album If You Wait will hit on September 9th.  The trio’s lead-singer, Hannah Reid, does not hide her vocal resemblance to Florence (& The Machine), but the band’s backing is comparatively stripped-down and they mostly avoid Florence’s grandiosity and histrionics.  In their comparatively-spare sound, London Grammar also remind of the atmospheric The xx, but perhaps minus some of that band’s fine dynamism.  The jury’s still out for us on this group, but there’s no refuting that Ms. Reid has serious vocal talent (if you can get past the obvious Flo-rishes).  Watch below as the band performs Strong for The Line of Best Fit.

London Grammar is about to embark on a US tour, beginning in LA at the Troubadour on September 25th.  All tour dates can be found HERE Strong’s official video can be seen below the live performance.
