Gemma Mewse

She's a movement she says...she's a soulfully voiced but edgy blonde chick doing a gutsy rock tinged pop music - if Ellie Goulding can do something she certainly should...pretty impressive for mainstream based femme fronted pop. The songs/delivery are really quite interesting for something basically in the Britney via Gwen Stefani mould.''
-Bugbear Promotions - Gemma Mewse is a seasoned performer. She has crammed more into her youthful 18 years than most do in a lifetime.
