George Pringle

...I'm going to
kick that indie witch in
the tits...

Once you pop you just can’t stop.

No that’s not Keira Knightley gone mad with a marker pen, its Georgina Pringle, and she is about to be huge.

Probably.

With a rising MySpace fan base and shed loads of quirkiness 2007 could well be her year.

George Pringle is a girl from SW10, currently studying in Oxford, where she used to sing with Oxford based band ‘ this town needs guns.’ Nowadays she can be found creating metaphor-strung monologues over laptop tracks composed in her bedroom. Her homebrew of shoegazing poetry (referencing anything from Audrey Tatou to Sonic the Hedgehog) and electronica has seen her MySpace page rack up fans. Drawing inspiration from M83, Bjork, Patrick Wolf and The Kills, her songs are defined loosely as ‘Blogtronica’, a diary styled train of thought set to minimal musical accompaniment.

"I know who Mogwai are too, darling" is a scathing attack on the indier-than-thou scene. She pours scorn on those who “Wear a dead granny’s dress to the indie discothèque” whilst also lamenting a kidnapping whereby her hair was forcibly dyed black to the tunes of Belle and Sebastian.

Despite the fact she's only uploaded a few demos to MySpace and played 4 gigs, which she does as a twist on karaoke, she alerted the attention of PiL’s manager who flew from LA to see her. Her photo friendly face has adorned the pages of NME and Loud & Quiet magazines, plus she features in a forthcoming Guardian article highlighting women who are all tipped to make it big in 2007.

"Leftfield glitch-folk with bite”

“Anyone who can say the words "Belle and Sebastian" with such transparent disdain has to be worth a listen”

"Her performance was a lot like a joke that everyone gets but you. But from what I saw, she was hot, so I forgive her."
