Betty And The Werewolves formed in 2008. The band comes from London, England. Their sound is a mixture of 80s and 90s indie Pop, with Cow-Punk drums, reverby Surf guitars, a Casiotone MT-45 keyboard and interplay of soft vocals. It's a dynamic album with each song it's own style. My favorite songs on the album are Paper Thin, David Cassidy and Hyacinth Girl.

There were only two promotional videos I found on YouTube. A tape deck provides a frame for the video in Euston Station. And Paper Thin is filmed in a library and n a park with the band and friends, and opens with a dedication to their favorite writers, I assume. David Cassidy was a single but I didn't see a promotional video for it.
