Van She is an electropop band formed in 2002 in Sydney, Australia, with Matt Van Schie on bass guitar vocals, Tomek Archer on drums sequencer, Michael Di Francesco on synth guitar and Nicholas Routledge on vocals guitar. The band's debut album, V was released on the Australian label Modular Recordings in August 2008, which peaked at #10 on the Australian Recording Industry Association album charts. Their label introduced them as a "new band from Sydney fresh on ideas, fresher than Flavor Flav, fresh like coriander, fresher than the Fresh Prince, fresher than fresh eggs." Despite these claims, the band began with a sound very much rooted in the 1980s, heavy on synthesizer, although later material reflects a more textured sound. They also do remixes of other artists' work both under their own name and as the offshoot, Van She Technologic.
