Somer Bingham, of the now-defunct series The Real L Word, is
making her own waves after a very public parting-of-ways with her ex-bandmates
in Hunter Valentine.

| This all look very Uh Huh Her, am I right? |
Her project Clinical Trials has that addictively
ferocious, screaming female vocal reminiscent of riot grrl, Yeah Yeah Yeahs,
and The Distillers. For this grungy, punk-pop duo, Bingham teamed up with
Stacey Lee, a powerhouse behind the kit who tends to judge the quality of the
band's sets by the severity of her whiplash the next day.
Their new single "Polly
Got Away (2013)" was mixed by Dan Huron (Yeah Yeah Yeahs, TV on the Radio)
and mastered by Emily Lazar of The Lodge (Sleigh Bells, Bjork, Garbage).
It happens to be accompanied by a killer - pun intended - video.
Though it's not often that the
15 minutes of reality tv fame have lasting effects - or even positive
ramifications! - for most, the video happens to have been a by-product of
Bingham's time on TRLW. Mary Zappulla, one of the producers on the show,
took a liking to the band's music and offered to recruit her
husband-cinematographer Pete to help them make a music video. The
result? It's just your usual cult-inspired supernatural representation of
teenage angst.
