I really enjoy it when a few of my favourite things combine to create something great, and in this case, I am talking about girl band Haim. Hailing from Los Angeles, this musically gifted foursome, which includes three sisters Alana, Este and Danielle Haim and drummer Dash Hutton, have proved that you can be beautiful, stylish and hugely talented. Yes, they have it all and to top it off, their sound has even been compared to that of one of our most beloved iconic ladies, Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac. So, in essence, before I even listened to Haim, I knew I already liked them.
After being signed with Polydor Records in the summer of 2012, these ladies went from zero to hero pretty quickly. Supporting the hugely successful Mumford and Sons on their Gentlemen of the Road tour and the flame haired singing siren Florence and the Machine, they then went on to perform at Glastonbury Festival this year and even provided backing vocals for Primal Scream's in addition to performing their own set too. Haim has not yet released a full album but I can anticipate that when they do, it will be a sensation, if their previous songs are anything to go by. My favourite 'Don't Save Me' shows exactly why they are compared to Fleetwood Mac, the sound is unique and upbeat and it certainly makes my morning walk to work that little bit better. These sisters are quite evidently a force to be reckoned with and their nonchalant, Californian eclectic style makes them quite easily my ultimate girl band of 2013.
