The Revelations
There is more than one band under this name.
(1) The Revelations are made up of Annika Magnberg, Sarah Vitorino and Louise Masters.
Their classic soulful pop music extends the lineage of the great girl groups of the Sixties (Ronettes, Supremes, Shirelles) while evoking memories of vintage ABBA. Yet despite these 24 carat pop reference points the girls create a sound that is both contemporary and timeless and instantly identifiable as The Revelations.
Last year they gigged the traditional London circuit (Dublin Castle, Borderline) in the hope of getting a record deal. After playing Alan McGees legendary Death Disco they were picked up by Simon Williams who put out a limited edition run of 'You're The Loser' on his Fierce Panda label (also home to debuts from Coldplay, Keane, and Oasis) which was soon played on Radio 1 and 6 Music by the lovely Steve Lamacq.
At the start of 2006 the girls went into the studio to record their debut album with producer Ian Grimble, which was mastered at Abbey Road in July.
The girls also run their own club night over in Notting Hill at the Arts Club on the first Sunday of every month where they perform a residency and DJ alongside their guests.Shaping up to be one of the most exciting acts of 2007, why not get yourself down to Notting Hill quickly to check them out and say Hello?!
(2) A soul band. The Revelations embody the raw essence of classic southern soul, with a sharp modern edge.
