Band to let fans star in video

The best lip-synchers could appear in weird new clip

Newcomers The Motorettes are giving fans the chance to star in their next video.

The group release single ‘You Gotta Look The Parts’ on May 22 and are looking for six fans to lip-synch along to their song which they will then edit together and use when the single is released.

The band are encouraging would-be video stars to come up with their own unique performances which they need to video and send in.
