Disco divas Juce are blowing up London\u2019s live circuit one bass pop at a time.<\/p>\n

\"Juce<\/a>FROM LEFT TO RIGHT Cherish wears brown and blue leather coat by MARNI, knitted top by DKNY and blue trousers by MSGM Chalin wears multicoloured jacket by CHRISTOPHER RAEBURN, white cotton shirt dress by ACNE STUDIOS and all jewellery by LUCY FOLK Georgia wears own clothes<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You\u2019d be forgiven for thinking that Chalin Barton, Cherish Kaya and Georgia Lee \u2013 otherwise known as girl group Juce \u2013 don\u2019t get on as they shout over each other across the dining table, emphasising their points with violently enthusiastic hand gestures. But the in-jokes, blurted out in near-perfect unison, and accompanying laughs \u2013 bellowing, hysterical chortles \u2013 confirm their BFF status.<\/p>\n

They actually have \u201cmassive girl crushes\u201d on each other and have had since they met, back in 2012 at a house party in London, where they all live. It\u2019s a classic tale of three girls\u2019 eyes meeting across the dancefloor: they throw what I assume would have been enviable shapes to the sound of Sly and The Family Stone\u2019s \u201cIf You Want Me To Stay\u201d and wake up in the morning finding themselves with a hangover and, after a couple of phone calls, in a band. Lee was the uniting force, Barton explains. \u201cI hadn\u2019t saved her name in my phone, so she\u2019s still in there as Girl Band Ting.\u201d A true noughts fairytale. Now Juce make the kind of music you\u2019d play at your own party.<\/p>\n

Their\u2019s is a delicious, fizzing potion of funk, soul and disco, with a luminous pop sheen \u2013 held together by an extra large serving of sass, naturally. Take it from bass poppin\u2019 lead single \u201c6th Floor\u201d, taken from their debut EP, Taste the Juice, released November 3 last year on Island Reconds. Sweet lulling 60s harmonies mesh with cascading 80s synths and the syncopated basslines of true groove. Their personal party picks are what feed this blend: Barton\u2019s is \u201cI Feel For You\u201d by Chaka Khan\u201d, which Kaya immediately certifies as a \u201cbanger!\u201d; Lee\u2019s is Deee-Lite\u2019s \u201cGroove Is In The Heart\u201d; and Kaya wants to hear \u201cEverything She Wants\u201d by Wham!, mostly because she claims she can perform
\nit backwards.<\/p>\n

Your mum and dad would probably like Juce. \u201cThe music is fun and inclusive,\u201d says Lee. \u201cI think about my past self, my 13-year-old self and wanting to be in a gang. Not just girls \u2013 boys, whoever!\u201d \u201cYou can sit with us!\u201d, shouts Barton. \u201cI want guys to love Juce as much as
\na 13-year-old girl,\u201d adds Kaya.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, we have to mention the obvious: in front of me sit three women trying to make their way in an irrefutably male-dominated industry. \u201cThe fact that it\u2019s even a thing to discuss,\u201d Barton utters with an eye-roll, \u201cIn 2015!\u201d She\u2019s so exasperated she struggles to finish her sentence. Lee finishes off. \u201cIt\u2019s not particularly about being \u2018sexy\u2019 girls, it\u2019s about making cool stuff. Interesting, intelligent stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n

One of their dream collaborations would be with Mercury-nominated spoken word performer Kate Tempest. It\u2019s considered too \u2013 they\u2019ve been working on their debut album, their \u201cbaby\u201d, for a while now. \u201cBasically we\u2019re waiting for the three of us to fall in love completely,\u201d Lee says, \u201cIt\u2019s 80 per cent of the way there.\u201d Kaya agrees. \u201cIt\u2019s going to be with us forever. It seems so throwaway now, but for us it\u2019s important to get as many absolutely amazing songs on it as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n

The trio\u2019s gigs \u2013 like a raucous recent one at Koko \u2013 are just as jolly and spontaneous as their chat. Barton explains their door policy: \u201cIf we share DNA or we\u2019ve shared bodily fluids, you get in for free. Everyone else pays a fiver.\u201d Unconventional but fair, no? \u201cBeing on stage, that\u2019s my bread and fucking butter. Being on stage and showing off for half an hour!\u201d<\/p>\n

Sincerity slips away as the girls start to chat about who they fancied from Blue and which one of them snogged a member of S Club Juniors. Not quite the fourth member (yet) and frankly a little exhausted, I leave them to it. I\u2019m available and interested though, girls.<\/p>\n
