The female-led discodelic soul band Say She She - named as a silent nod to
Nile Rodgers (C’est chi-chi!: It's Chic!”) will transport you with their dreamy
harmonies, catchy hooks and up-tempo grooves. The band's sound is a hat
tip to late 70’s girl groups with the three strong female lead voices of Piya
Malik (El Michels Affair staple feature, and former backing singer for Chicano
Batman), Sabrina Mileo Cunningham and Nya Gazelle Brown (former 79.5)
at the epicenter of a roaring 7 piece band.
The band’s debut single FORGET ME NOT quickly proved to be a certified
dancefloor banger. Written as an ode to New York City’s Guerilla Girls
fighting racial and gender discrimination in the art world - premiered by DJ
Novena Carmel on Morning Becomes Eclectic and described by Jeremy
Sole as “ The Funkiest shit Ive heard in a while!”
Say She She’s follow up single - a sultry B side BLOW MY MIND has
catalyzed their Karma Chief /Colemine 7” release as a must cop 45 for DJs
coast to coast. They followed that with a billowing protest anthem NORMA in
June; it was Say She She’s response to the then impending decision to
overturn Roe Vs Wade is an urgent call for ACTION in support of protecting
women’s rights and preserving the right to choose.
“Weeee Will Not Go Back!/ Right is now Wrong/ What is left of left?”
Their last single, TROUBLE, which was produced by members of The
Extraordinaires (Charles Bradley). was released earlier this month and made
its debut in KCRW's weekly Top 10 charts.
