Lion Babe

We've been keeping an eye on r'n'b/dance duo Lion Babe ever since we heard the Badu-ish 'Jump Hi' – and Disclosure obviously feels the same, since Jillian Hervey appeared on second album standout 'Houseglass'.

The daughter of showbiz royalty (her mother is Vanessa Williams) they're also one of the best-connected bands on the block: Pharrell Williams, Childish Gambino and Andrew Wyatt all feature, and on the N*E*R*D-y 'Wonder Woman', the Gwen Stefani-style 'Stressed Out' and 'Impossible', they are impossible not to love.

On 'Jungle Lady', meanwhile, they wind down as well as Erykah did with 'Window Seat'. Vanessa Williams would be proud: they really did save the best for last.
