Hannah Reid has a beautiful voice. The song ‘Rooting For You, where she sings the first 2 minutes a cappella in the video is just spine tingling stuff. I read up about her and she is a Contralto, as opposed the Alison, who is normally classified as a Lyric Soprano.

I have a growing penchant for music that contains hidden, subtle power. London Grammar seems to typify that for me. They are like this incredible fusion of classical and rock&roll. I love the way the music composition seems to be constructed with devotion to highlighting the vocal power and subtle emphasis of Hannah Reid. It's awesome.
I am so tired of the bashingly loud perception of rock&roll that seems to be the mainstream view. I can't believe I put up with it for most of my life.

I actually found out about London Grammar via an interview, I believe it was, with Alison, who was quoted complementing Hannah's performance on Wasting My Young Years. I subsequently got to see them perform live at a small venue in Seattle.
