Americans must be obsessing over their pop culture, but this band, Haim (rhymes as “time”),  lead into the music revolution in 2013. Haim consist of three sisters, Este, Danielle, and Alana Haim. If you see on their ages, you must be thinking that these girls have zero experience in the professional scene, just to make it clear the girls have gone through A to Z of how the scene goes. Danielle and Este were the members of all-girl group named the Valli Girls (the group did a soundtrack for The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants. Danielle was aked by Julian Casablancas to play guitar and percussion on his solo tour. And she did some work with Cee-Lo as his backing band.  Later then, the girls decided to pour theirselves deeper to make Haim more seriously. Haim were originally formed in 2006 but they started reaching their limelight in 2012. The band have supported well known bands like Mumford & Sons, Florence And the Machine, Edwards Sharped and the Magnetic Zeros, and even a pop star, Kesha.

The band have released two EPs, Forever and iTunes Festival : London 2012, and three singles, Forever, Dont Save Me, and Failing. Amazingly, Haim dont have the typical perspective as some of the stream figther bands do lately. The band put some hip/hop, RnB, pop, and even folk (it’s pretty much seen as the girls are a huge fan of the Strokes and Danielle is a fan of Usher). Eventhough the iconic singer, Mick Jagger, said “Haim? Never heard of them” the sisters will be pretty much known soon since they were one of the lineups for SXSW. So far, they have accomplished in being nominated fopr MTV’s Brand New For 2013 and topped the BBC Sound Of 2013 (which they defeated great bands like Savages).

Having a league of fans who have been very solid to them, Haim are totally on their track to steal the spot light. NME also put the band on the cover with the brits’ Palma Violets. Haim are the new thing who will bring the past to the future. Either they will be giving some revolution music movement or not, they are a band that you should be watching in 2013. As our weekly feature’s title says, “The Next Big Thing”.
