FLY REVIEW
London, Macbeth
‘Fronted by the impossibly beautiful Rebekah Raa, this London foursome make for a striking live proposition as they slink around the stage dishing out reverb-heavy, scratchy riff-fueled indie pop. ‘Five Metres Apart’ and ‘Better As A Girl’ are crowd pleasing highlights from a storming performance packed to bursting with compelling melodies and killer attitude. The incredibly sultry Stricken City will go far…’
