https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQA7EPcvyHc Key Tracks: White Magic for Lovers, El President & I Know I Could Why You Should Listen To Them: Lead singer Isabel Monteiro's sex kitten voice, for one. Inspired by Gus Van Sant's also-underrated 1989 film Drugstore Cowboy, the London, England group were strangely overlooked when they burst onto the scene in the mid-90s. Despite a few appearances on film and TV soundtracks and turns playing large festivals, their albums never sold in great numbers. Their second record, White Magic For Lovers, is their best and the title track, which beautifully marries Monteiro's bittersweet lyrics with a western guitar sound. Where Are They Now: They split in 2002 and Isabel Monteiro fell on hard times, but they reformed in 2009 with a reshuffled lineup and have regularly played gigs since.
