= SKINNY GIRL DIET
Possibly THE most exciting band in the UK, Skinny Girl Diet are a fierce girl gang from London. The teenage threesome formed in 2011 and have gone from strength to strength. In an exciting turn of events, they've been persuaded to emerge from the capital to take on the rest of the UK, and the world, for that matter.

Riot Grrrl, like I always understood it ... i.e. female empowering, and not scared to experiment with new musical forms, and not rooted. Exciting, because this music could go anywhere. Thereʼs a Tumblr blog full of cat pictures and vaguely menacing attitude. Of course there is... " EVERETT TRUE
"A female Pixies with similar almost spoken word vocals but with added thrash." BENJAMIN SPIRO-HUGHES
