With CLAIRY's big, soulful voice and her wild, jazz-inflected backing band, their Australian debut BABY CAUGHT THE BUS moves through heart-wrenching doo-wop wailing, to drunken pianos and tough hard-hitting soul. The album will be released with additional new songs in the U.S. in early 2013. The record was recently named "Album Of The Year" by ABC Radio National has drawn overwhelmingly positive reviews from critics and spawned an international hit with the first single "Love Letter." The song was hand-picked by Heineken for "The Switch" commercial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZtDqpdvy7s.
