Here at Raw Talent we pride ourselves in introducing you to the cream of the crop of the local music scene. What better band to thrust into the spotlight then a local group, who according to their Myspace describe themselves as the 鈥渋ndie ABBA鈥�.

Fused together from two different bands to create what keyboard player Emma describes as "one super-group", we delve into the darkest depths of JSMG听 discovering the hazards of drinking on stage and all about Dave鈥檚 amazing triceps.

When the band started writing material together Emma Houlton recalls that "after a bit of encouragement, I was convinced to put down my bass guitar and pick up a keyboard again. I invested in a tiny Micro Korg Vocoder and I haven鈥檛 put it down since." The 'super-group' are veterans on the local gig scene having played established nights The Sesh, Under The Influence and Club NME.

Just in case you've missed out on hearing the band yet, Raw Talent asked Emma to describe in one sentence Jesus Stole My Girlfriend's sound. "An electronic cat-o-nine tails!" she came back with. Well, we did ask and that must make you want to hear them now!

Citing MGMT as the band they'd most love to tour with Emma explains "They are a big inspiration to us and I reckon we鈥檇 get on like a house on fire. Also, there鈥檚 not as many of them as there are us, so they wouldn鈥檛 take up too much of the tour bus!"

Sensible thinking, that鈥檚 very logical - any other reason?
"...and we鈥檇 get the most of the free beer from the rider at the gigs we played together."

Local music venue The Lamp, Norfolk Street has played host to the band鈥檚 most memorable gig. Emma recalls " we played with our good friends The Cliques, people were singing our songs back to us and there was a stage invasion."
But this wasn't where the night ended.听 Later in the evening they performed again, at an after party for their faithful fans. Clearly this band looks after their followers, even giving them a nickname, the 'Kestrel Army鈥�.

We like to know rock stars are human too, so we asked what was the most embarrassing on stage moment for Jesus Stole My Girlfriend? Emma recalls her cringe worthy moment.
"I'd had a little bit too much to drink before playing a gig in Hull, half way through the set I fell over jumping around and brought my keyboard and stand down with me"
And what did the lovely Northern crowd do?
"Everyone started shouting 'She fell over' and pointing at me. Luckily, I don't even remember doing it."
Emma's answer literally reeks of rock n roll!

Get online and check out the music on their Myspace page. 'Fight the problem' is a band favourite and Raw Talent's too. Emma explains "Well the title of the track is a little bit self explanatory really. We penned it all together, so it has a little piece of us all in it."

The band it seems is foremost friends then band mates.
"We鈥檝e all rolled around in a gang together for quite a few years now" Emma tells us.
"We like to go out together around Hull and we're always there for each other...we're all best mates really. I know I personally couldn't be in a band with people I don't get on well with off-stage."
Their friendship doesn't stop Emma revealing that they know who would win in a fight within the band if ever things turn less cosy.
"Dave - he has a good set of triceps. He would definitely win in an arm wrestle."

Having been blown away with their session for us on Raw Talent we'll certainly be paying close attention to the band in the coming year.
Get out and see them live in Hull before they hit it big. Jesus Stole My Girlfriend is not a name easily forgotten.
