Quirky, upbeat, and sunnier than mid-August, Alphabeat are Stine Bramsen, Rasmus Nagel, Troels Hansen and the three Anders: SG, B, and Reinholdt. A band of Danes with a love for all things retro that's as big as their wonky pop sound, they scored a UK Top Ten album with 2008's debut, This Is Alphabeat.
Alphabeat's second album The Beat Is... , is due for release on March 1st 2010 and has already spawned two hit singles, ' The Spell' and ' Hole In My Heart' both of which hark back to the halcyon days of '90s pop. Their smorgasbord of pop hits got a live outing thanks to a support slot for Lady Gaga on her UK Monster Ball tour.
Most of us are too young to remember '90s pop first time round, so reviving it doesn't feel odd. Besides, the '00s are over now so it's retro already!Stine![]()
