Woven with tight grooves, beautiful vocals and catchy melodies, \u003cem\u003eShy Girl\u003c\/em\u003e hears singer and songwriter Hollie Cook revel in her contemporary lovers rock sound, more confident and open to vulnerability than ever before.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eA sun-drenched exploration of love in all its guises, \u003cem\u003eShy Girl\u003c\/em\u003e 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 recognisable “tropical pop” sound that Cook has made her own.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003ePut together across three years and four cities – from LA and NYC, to Vejer de la Frontera in Spain and Cook’s hometown London – \u003cem\u003eShy Girl\u003c\/em\u003e was written with long-time collaborators, \u003cstrong\u003eThe General Roots Band\u003c\/strong\u003e, and features a contribution from legendary dub \u003cstrong\u003eMC Horseman\u003c\/strong\u003e, who lends his voice to the album’s first single ‘\u003cem\u003eNight Night\u003c\/em\u003e’.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe album opens with the title track ‘\u003cem\u003eShy Girl’\u003c\/em\u003e, a buoyant and elastic slice of lovers rock that was written in a moment of spontaneous intuition, and bubbles with a charisma and positivity that Cook radiates. “I’m not a natural show-off,” Cook explains. “The Shy Girl theme is me. It’s just about being my most vulnerable self and being as true to the music that Iove as possible.” It is this honesty which shines throughout, from the chugging deep dub of ‘\u003cem\u003eFrontline\u003c\/em\u003e’, complete with raking electric guitar lines, to the bittersweet roots ballad ‘\u003cem\u003eWe Share Love\u003c\/em\u003e’, which closes out the album.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's clear to see that Cook’s songwriting draws on a lifetime of musical influences and inspirations.
