"Holiday"

Introducing the first release on Chris Coco's new Melodica label, a sultry affair by the man himself, entitled ‘Holiday’
The A-side features Scottish folk artist Samantha Whates doing her best to sound like the ghost of Astrud Gilberto and the clinking of ice in glasses of a rather lovely Italian rosé for inspiration and general good vibes. It's a song about needing to get away, a plea to a lover at the end of a relationship; it's highly personal and extremely universal, like a good alternative pop song should be.
The B-side captures a one-off lounge piano performance by the maestro Sacha Puttnam. The original jam was recorded at Sacha's country studio hideaway in the depths of County Cork in Ireland. The dub was done in Chris's Freedom Street studio in the heart of south London.
Both these tracks are from the sessions for the forthcoming album ‘Freedom Street.’
