(New Album-Black vinyl c/w Free Autographed Picture)
Almost fifteen years since the release of her self-titled debut LP on Mr Bongo, reggae's orator of love Hollie Cook is returning to the label for Shy Girl, her fifth studio album and her most authentic yet.
Woven with tight grooves, beautiful vocals and catchy melodies, Shy Girl hears singer and songwriter Hollie Cook revel in her contemporary lover's rock sound, more confident and open to vulnerability than ever before. A sun-drenched exploration of love in all its guises, Shy Girl tells stories of the magical and the melancholy, the heart-lifting and heart-breaking, across 12 luscious, analogue reggae compositions - the culmination of a soft-hued and instantly recognizable "tropical pop" sound that Cook has made her own.
Shy Girl was written with long-time collaborators, The General Roots Band, and features a contribution from legendary dub MC Horseman, who lends his voice to the album's first single 'Night Night'.
