Strawberry Fields Forever

Strawberry Whiplash
Genre: Indie / Pop
From: Glasgow, United Kingdom

Sandra and Laz (of Bubblegum Lemonade) are Strawberry Whiplash. Based in Glasgow, Scotland where everyone is in a pop band, and many of them in more than one. It’s in the blood, it’s in the water and it’s in the contract.

Once described as a cross between Scottish forefathers/mothers Strawberry Switchblade and Meat Whiplash they're more like the missing link between Sarah Records and Creation Records or the point at which The Darling Buds turn into My Bloody Valentine.

The duo have just released their second EP, Picture Perfect, four fuzzy tracks that jangle like a nervous skeleton while the enchanting Sandra croons like a frustrated femme fatale. An EP that's
as sweet as a chocolate covered strawberry dipped in sugar and indier than Steve Lamacq's ipod.

Strawberry Whiplash deserve a place in your heart.
