Biography
juice are an experimental vocal trio, specialising in jaw-dropping a cappella noise which embraces modern classical music, borrows from jazz, rubs up against folk and twists pop round a little finger... juice also collaborate closely with electronica artists and visual artists and put on quirky, dark theatrical shows. You'll hear anything from Bjork mash-ups to beautifully pure harmonies, eerie American folk songs and growling harmonics. juice has performed nationally and internationally, at festivals including fuseleeds, the Spor Festival in Denmark, the Sound Source at Cargo, the bmic's Cutting Edge series and national tour and the Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival. They were the first UK group ever to be prizewinners at the Tampere Vocal Festival in June 2007. They have recently appeared on Roger Marsh's 'Pierrot Lunaire' on the NMC label and performed with UK Beatboxing Champion Beardyman at the London College of Fashion Graduate Show. They have been broadcast on BBC Radio 3, Classic FM's Chiller Cabinet and Resonance FM.

We love our juice travels to exciting new places, short films (we're appearing in the soundtrack to a new one!), we couldn't rehearse without tea and cookies (which Sarah makes particularly well -and quickly!) and we love to dine together after rehearsals - especially when Kerry's hubby Andy is cooking! We love a fine cocktail and are quite partial to crunchy organic peanut butter on hot buttered toast. We love gigs at the Spitz and applying loads of sparkly aquamarine eyeshadow before any gig....Favourite Music
