Happy Wednesday! Your Happens.vip Alternative Artist Discovery Of The Week is London’s Suki Waterhouse. She says, “I wanted to write a song that could be played in the movie Clueless at the mall! It has a grungy garage rock feel that reminded me of that era of music and it was like my anthem to remind myself to get out of bed in the morning – I have a tendency to bed rot.” Big thanks to Scott Perlewitz at Sub Pop Records for VIP Access.
