Arthur

It came to my attention earlier, via the Exitfare blog that Hampshire upstarts Arthur called it quits a couple of weeks ago.

A bit of a shame considering their early potential, songs like 'Complications' and 'Last Night Honey' hinted at a poppier version of Help She Can't Swim and while they moved away from that sound over the last couple of years, recent single 'Tortured Artist' still captured a similarly exciting vibe.

I suspect that lead vocalist Hannah may well be branching out as a solo artist consequently, having apparently played Guilfest recently. Her last.fm page is here and might be worth keeping an eye on.
