Exit Clov www.exitclov.com
Featuring intelligent, hook-laden songs, Exit Clov fashion a sound beyond their times. The band is fronted by identical twin sisters who trade edgy, urban vocal lines against violins, synth, break-beat drum and bass, and tasteful lead guitar. "The Saskwatch EP" is the band's second and witnesses their ability to experiment with the pop formula by infusing noise, compositional and art rock.
