Some words on Hands EP from Juno –

‘Sassier than a slap from a glam queen crunked up on sarsaparilla, “Hands” is both cuttingly sharp and stupendously silky.

A rare breed.’ Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
