Description:
Almost 15 years after releasing her debut album on Mr Bongo, reggae love evangelist Holly Cook returns to the label with her fifth studio album, Shy Girl. This album is her most sincere work to date. With "Shy Girl," singer-songwriter Holly Cook is more confident than ever, embracing vulnerability with a contemporary lovers' rock sound that is full of tight grooves, beautiful vocals, and catchy melodies. A sun-drenched exploration of all aspects of love, the album weaves a tale of magic and melancholy, heart-lifting and heartbreaking, through 12 luscious analog reggae tracks. It is the culmination of the softly colored and instantly recognizable "tropical pop" sound for which Cook has developed a unique style. Produced in four cities over the course of three years (Los Angeles, New York, Bejer de la Frontera, Spain, and Cook's hometown of London), "Shy Girl" was produced with longtime collaborators General Roots Band and features the legendary dub MC Horseman. He sings vocals on "Night Night," the first single from the album. The album opens with the title track, "Shy Girl. The light and supple rubbers-rock song is born from an impulsive moment and is full of Cook's charisma and positivity. I'm not naturally the type to stand out," Cook explains. 'The theme of this piece is myself. Being my most vulnerable self and staying as true as possible to the music I love." This sincerity abounds throughout the album, from the heavy dub of "Frontline," with its fiery electric guitar melody, to the bittersweet roots ballad "We Share Love," which closes the album. Cook's songwriting clearly draws from a lifetime of musical influences and inspiration. From the record collection of his father Paul Cook, drummer for the Sex Pistols, to touring with The Slits led by post-punk icon Ari Up, to his love of strong, female-led pop music and the heavy bass sounds of London sound system culture, It contains a variety of elements. For Holly Cook, who was drawn to the music of Janet Kay and Phyllis Dillon, "Shy Girl" represents a return to home and growing up, refining and refining the sparkling reggae sound. It will capture the hearts and minds of those who listen to it, just as it has captivated her own.
