It’s so hard to find decent girl bands with guitars these days…so when Haim were recently announced the winners of BBC’s Sound of 2013, with their blend of R&B style synths, Fleetwood Mac-esque cool and killer hypnotic vocals, you could say I was pretty chuffed.

Hailing from California, the trio of sisters Este, Danielle and Alana Haim are not only set to take the music world by storm this year but have gotten fashion pundits and the blogsphere talking with their nu-hipster style. The girls draw inspirations from 70’s folk to tailored menswear to pretty vintage dresses to 90’s grunge all topped off with their soon-to-be signature long brunette locks. They’ve already modelled for ASOS and are tipped ones to watch by Vogue, Company and Interview magazine.
For me not only is their infectious music a breath of fresh air in a pure pop industry (and a welcome change to the drawl of Lana Del Ray – sorry not sorry :P) but their style, though not entirely new, is both fashion forward yet completely wearable…not to mention the fact they come Florence Welch-approved, can’t argue with that right?
But don’t let the pretty appearances fool you…these girls know how to play like the big boys….
