About SAY SHE SHE:
The female-led discodelic soul band Say She She – named as a silent nod to Nile Rodgers (C’est chi-chi!: It’s Chic!”) will transport you with their dreamy harmonies, catchy hooks and up-tempo grooves.
KCRW recently named Prism #1 on their just-published Top 30 albums list and after their debut single “Forget Me Not,” a gritty funk send-up inspired by NYC’s Guerilla Girls made a huge first splash – premiered by DJ Novena Carmel on Morning Becomes Eclectic and described by Jeremy Sole as “The Funkiest sh*t Ive heard in a while!” They have been on heavy radio rotation – receiving key spins across several influential shows from BBC Radio 6, JAZZ FM and Gilles Peterson’s WorldWide FM to WNYC and KEXP.
The band’s sound described as “A glorious overload of joyful elation and spiritual elevation” (MOJO) “Infused with the wonky post-disco spirit of early ’80s NYC” (The Guardian) injected with soaring sounds of the late 70’s girl groups with three strong female lead voices of Piya Malik (El Michels Affair staple feature, and former backing singer for Chicano Batman), Sabrina Mileo Cunningham and Nya Gazelle Brown (former 79.5).
Say She She’s follow up single – a sultry B side "BLOW MY MIND" catalyzed their 7” release as a must cop 45 for DJs coast to coast and charted at number 12 on KCRW’s Top 30 Album chart. Next their single “Trouble” produced by members of Daptone stalwarts Charles Bradley’s The Extraordinaires and Lee Fields The Expressions – recently hit #7 on KCRW’s Top 30 followed up with their billowing protest anthem “NORMA” written in response to the decision to overturn Roe v Wade. Their single "Fortune Teller" has been fixed on the BBC 6 A list.
The live set injects funk and pop with a heavy dose of dance and disco beats and a wide range of inspirations: Indian legend Asha Puthli, David Macuso’s loft parties, Turkish funk, Rotary Club, Stax soul groups and more, carving their own corner and coining their own crate of Discodelic Soul. The dazzling harmonizing trio of frontwomen are joined by a roaring roster of musicians that includes members of underground cult-funk band Orgone.
Say She She has also been on a roll on the road since this summer with their 7 piece band playing a number of festivals (including Giles Peterson’s We Out Here Fest and Lost Village) across the UK – their debut headline gig in London sold out in a few days and on the US East Coast, they were a must watch at the Rockefeller Center Rough Trade Indie Plaza festival in New York City. Following the release of their debut LP, their recent success has culminated in sold out shows (including in L.A) for their Debut headline ‘Out of Our Minds’ Tour this Fall.

About ABBY JEANNE:
I am just a product of a haunted jukebox and the golden heart degenerates. Nothing beats surfing the narrative of the cosmic radio and thriving off of the lust for life. Dreams, schemes and the human experience. It’s Rock N’ Roll for the dreamers soul. My spirit is made from the fire of rebellion, and the desire to spread it wild. Tho my character may translate as one with rigid strength and angst, in truth it is the golden armor of a powerful woman who fights fear with courage head on. Love is the key and music is my language. With this tool I hope to heal and translate the traumas of our lives. Listen to the music and you can tell me what it sounds like.
