For no other reason than she's brilliant, here's the wonderful Hollie Cook with a couple of "tropical pop" singles from her 2022 album, Happy Hour.
And if that's whet your appetite for more Hollie, then here are a few more audio and visual delights.
It's the first Bandcamp Friday of 2024 on 2nd Feb, so amongst the many Hollie Cook back catalogue recommendations, the dub version of the Happy Hour album is high on the list.
Hollie's performing at the last date of Bristol Sounds 2024 on Sunday 23rd June, along with Count Skylarkin, Kiko Bun, Dreadzone, The Dualers, The Skints and headliners Gentleman's Dub Club. Not sure that I'll be able to go but what a line up.
Hollie has appeared on a couple of GDC songs, including Play My Games from last year's On A Mission album, so hopefully in addition to her set she'll pop back up on stage to perform with them. Here's a taster if you've not heard them before.
Hollie Cook always makes me smile. Her music is so fun and uplifting, I just can't be in a bad mood when she comes on the stereo. Always loved her work with Prince Fatty, especially the Hollie Cook in Dub LP.
ReplyDeleteI love the Prince Fatty productions but Hollie's a formidable presence at the controls as well as the mic. Loving Happy Hour and its In Dub companion.
