What a pleasant surprise! The multitalented and multilingual Sabina Sciubba, best known as the co-founder and lead singer of critically acclaimed New York based band Brazilian Girls, is ready to release her debut solo album, Toujours. The effort sees Sabina recruiting Brazilian Girls producer Frederik Rubens to assist in the recording and production duties. She explained the process:
“I started this project on the acoustic guitar, as an escape, in a way, from the party music I’ve been doing for some time. But after a while I felt like I had gone off too far, I was out in the woods, so I came back to the city—And the city was Paris. Frederik and I started working on a few of the songs with an electric guitar. It took a more rock, more lavish direction, still intimate, but not sleepy. It felt right.”
Toujours will hit stores on February 18 via Bar/None Records in the US and on March 24th in the UK via Naim Edge. The album’s title track had already been unveiled with an amusing accompanying video, and now Sabina is offering another excellent taste of the album with ‘Viva L’amour’. Enjoy both tracks below.
