EMILIA SISCO: Lemon & Lime Sours (Vinyl 7″)

New from Finland’s Timmion Records shortly comes this dreamy slice of summer soul by Emilia Sisco on 45. Her backing band on this one is Timmion house band Cold Diamond & Mink and they ensure there’s just the right combo of funky percussive grit and horns-led sweetness to underpin Sisco’s wistful vocal. “Where there’s no love for power/ Sugar-coated sunshowers/ Where our hearts will combine/ Where our love can be divine,” she sings. Hang on – this isn’t a song about cocktails is it? No it isn’t – we’re in metaphorical territory where the sweet vs sour characteristics of said drink captures the essence of falling in love!
(Out 12 July on Timmion Records)
