If you like old ska, rocksteady, soul and singers like Phyllis Dillon, Susan Cadogan, Dawn Penn, chances are you're gonna love Hollie Cook. Her voice is sweeter than pie. She has a full length album out produced by Prince Fatty on Mr. Bongo Records as well as a 7-inch single. Hollie's father was Sex Pistols' drummer Paul Cook and she also recently was performing with The Slits. The music and production of the songs is stellar, a perfect combination of an old and new sound meshed perfectly together. Her talent will most-likely be overlooked in America, but I can totally see her being a huge star in Europe (if she's not already). You can listen to the entire album for free here and buy the LP here.
