Back order

£20.83 (£24.99 incl. VAT)

Mr Bongo present a yellow vinyl repress of Hollie's sensational, self-titled
2011 debut album
14 years on, this timeless debut produced by Prince Fatty fuses Hollie's self-coined
'tropical pop' sound with her passion for reggae and lovers rock singers such as Janet
Kay and Phyllis Dillon and classic '60s girl groups. An album that radiates with
highlights, it features what would become one of Hollie's most popular songs, the
super catchy, sun-soaked 'Milk & Honey' that has racked up over 46 million streams on
Spotify alone.
Elsewhere, there are distinctive reggae cover versions of the Shangri-Las '(Remember)
Walkin' In The Sand', transformed from a dark, emotive cut into one flled with a favour
of hope, alongside a signature new spin on Rachel Sweet's amazing, laidback 'It's So
Different Here'. Take to the bass- heavy 'Sugar Water (Look At My Face)' for a dubleaning workout and look to the singles 'That Very Night' and 'Body Beat' to further feel
the synergy between Hollie and Prince Fatty, showcasing songs that are inspired and
infuenced by the past but with a defnitive foot in the present. Adding further weight
to this iconic debut, there are a talented array of musicians featuring across the
record, including Omar, Dennis Bovell, George Decker (The Pioneers), Horseman, Style
Scott, Black Steel, Mutant Hi-Fi and more.
Along with Prince Fatty at the controls and Hollie on the mic, together they crafted a
classic sound that feels as fresh (but also as vintage) as it did fourteen years ago. A
modern masterpiece in its genre, and the start of Hollie's journey to becoming the
contemporary queen of the lovers rock sound.
