From London via Lagos, charismatic chanteuse Sister Cookie takes you on an eclectic excursion into the roots & fruits of black music. Old sounds, new tricks. Sensuous, seductive and moody.
Following her crowning as the winner of Record Store Day Unsigned 2020, Cookie signed to The Liquid Label and recorded her debut album with Alex McGowan (Jim Jones, Urban Voodoo Machine, Future Shape of Sound) at Eko East studio, mixed by Tom Campbell (Michael Kiwanuka, Little Simz, Sault).
Sister Cookie has been a mainstay on the vintage Soul & R’n’R circuit since 2013 playing at Latitude, Red Rooster, Port Elliot and touring across Europe with her band.
She's enjoyed radio play from Craig Charles at 6Music, Resonance, Jazz FM plus many smaller internet stations plus support from Radio 3ne in Spain and across Europe, appeared in '50 Women in Blues' book in 2019 and hosted her own regular Boogalloo Radio show.
In the UK, she's performed at the 100 Club, Union Chapel, Green Note and many more as well as performing at an all-star tribute show at the Brooklyn Bowl alongside Glen Matlock, The Puppini Sisters & Jim Jones and stints as a guest vocalist with The Soulful Orchestra, Jim Jones & The Righteous Mind, Future Shape Of Sound & MFC Chicken.
“The most original sound. Like Little Richard, Mark Ronson, Nina Simone and Nick Cave all got locked in a New Orleans speakeasy”
“Her voice is stunning, powerful and unique, and her stage presence hits the back of the room at any venue she plays”
