what is it in the water of this sceptred isle that produces such great pop music? the current resurgence of talent in the uk has everyone in the british music scene grinning from ear to ear at the moment. something has been happening alright and a brand new 3-piece stretch princess are set to burst out of this new optimism on the back of a guitar-pop sound that's so fresh dangerous.

stretch princess were invited to play at this year's in the city on the strength of a stunning one track demo. unlike most of the other already tipped bands at the event, this three piece were complete unknowns before their gig in dublin. since then, things have been different. offers of studio time and free production have been jamming the phone lines at their management offices.

their guitar pop brilliance set many tongues wagging at the recent ascap gig with a melody maker piece already in the bag (appearing 25 nov) stretching up the ladder of success has never been easier.

This is a 1966 Austin Vanden Plas Princess Limousine. The name "Stretch Princess" probably refers to this type of car, especially a stretch princess limosine.
