Here’s a band bio Austin 360 did of Miss Unique back in February:
In 50 words or less: Straddling booty club beats that mix heavy doses of Miami Bass with 808 groove and electro blip, Dominique Young Unique is a barely legal, stiletto-strapped, spitfire with a furious flow.

Artist of the Day: Dominique Young Unique →
Tampa’s Soundcheck posted this about Dominique last year. It’s a nice little intro about Miss Unique + how she got started. Here’s a bit:
When all the attention first hit, it came as a huge surprise to Unique.
“I didn’t know my music was being played in London and New York,” she said. “I had a lot of people comment on my MySpace: ‘I can’t wait until you come to...
