Cook, Hollie - Happy Hour (IEX) (Orchid & Tangerine)

With Happy Hour, her ravishing new LP, Hollie Cook matures into the queen of modern-day "lovers rock"-the lush girly harmony reggae style beloved in Britain since the 1970s. Evolution rings from the bittersweet opening title track; tender yet assertive, Hollie's voice caresses evocative lyrics through the arrangement's tumbling changes.
