It takes a ballsy kinda move to cover En Vogue. Little Mix did it, Sugababes did it and well, Professor Green tried to do a version too (less said about the last one the better). That sort-of move perfectly sums up Strong Asian Mothers though, the London trio whose blending of styles and melodies makes them one of the most refreshing sounds of the year.
In the video for ‘Don’t Let Go’, debuted and premiered right here on Dork, Strong Asian Mothers introduce the world to Glum-face - a noun coined by the band themselves and described as:
The practice of looking dejected or morose regardless of the situation at hand, often performed in a place of attractive or humorous merit for photographic purposes by the band Strong Asian Mothers.
Take that Dictionary! In the clip, the trio (made up of childhood friends Amer Chadha Patel, Josh Stadlen and Kalim Patel - AKA Khushi) are having all the fun in the world at their own birthday party, sitting deep in Glum-face mode which quickly spreads through all gathered.
