2008 is here and so come The Ting Tings, they teased and tantalized you during the latter months of last year by releasing extremely limited singles and playing very few headline shows. The duly deposited buzz has built steadily to launch one of the most exciting British indie-pop acts to emerge from these shores in years. Last week it was announced the band were voted third in the prestigious BBC Sounds of 2008 critics' poll.

Jules De Martino and Katie White make up the majestical pop explosion that are The Ting Tings.
