"Everything in the room we set up in at this swanky Soho restaurant is purple, of course. From the walls to the carpet to the couch that they sit on, 3RDEYEGIRL are decoratively surrounded by reminders of their founder/mentor, a man so synonymous with the colour that they might as well rename it after him. Though he’s not in the room, it couldn’t be more Prince.

"f they aren’t entirely responsible for the renaissance he’s currently enjoying, 3RDEYEGIRL are certainly a huge part of it. Since forming the band in November 2012, Prince seems to have been in a richer vein of form than in any point since 2006’s widely overlooked (but beloved by fans) 3121 album. Four records – Planet Earth, Lotusflow3r, MPLSound and 20Ten – have passed since, with none making more than a ripple outside of his hardcore fanbase. When he steps on stage with this band, however, the world takes notice."
