On her debut album Cook's nine songs mix her rich and soulful vocals and dubby roots reggae production with a very British pop-soul aesthetic.
Born and bred in West London, the daughter of Sex Pistol drummer Paul Cook, Hollie's diverse resume includes singing with all-female punk-dub group The Slits. On her debut album Cook's nine songs mix her rich and soulful vocals and dubby roots reggae production with a very British pop-soul aesthetic.
Hollie's self-coined 'Tropical pop' sound stems from her passion for reggae singers Janet Kay and Phyllis Dillon combined with classic 60s girl groups. The album is produced by friend and collaborator Mike Pelanconi, better known as Prince Fatty and includes a cover of Shangri-La's' "(Remember) Walkin' In The Sand", transformed from a dark emotive song to one filled with a flavour of hope. The talents of Omar, Dennis Bovell, George Decker of The Pioneers, Style Scott and Horseman also feature across the album.
