The leaves begin to whirl, as ‘Sycamore Trees’ comes to life- the third single from London’s Phoebe Coco. It’s out on Sharp Attack Records, October the 11th with a live show on Resonance FM on the 12th of October. Sycamore Trees puts the skip in your step and the swing in your stride. Where are you going? It’s a song that questions destinations, desires, values and the journey we take to get there. In the end it celebrates the exhilarated bliss of living in the moment as we throw our hands in the air and join the leaves as we spin around.
This is a another new sound from Phoebe, with driving drums and rich chorus harmonies sung by her twin sisters, arpeggiated bass, piano and flute lead by an airy vocal topline. The track has been produced alongside Marc Makarov and Vanessa Anne Redd of Sharp Attack Records, and mixed by multi grammy award winning Edaurdo De La Paz.
From riding horses in the wild forests of Provence to singing into sleepless sunrises on London’s streets after nights dancing, Phoebe Coco can hear music wherever she goes. Growing up in a household where music making is a way of life, with uncle Pedro Ortiz drumming for David Bowie and Mick Jagger, her mother touring in Hair The Musical, and dancing in Diana Ross videos- all of which remain major influences to this day.
She has since graduated from Brighton’s Art University, Music & Visual Arts, with alumni of composers; Bat For Lashes, Metronomy, Dream Wife to name a few.
Her history as a songwriter and composer can be traced back to a variety of music across the field, her practice with Breathing Space Collective, experimental sound performance collective who score site specific works of music, outside the conventional means of creation and as a composer for film/ theatre and commercials writing music for Universal while two of the songs on the album have been featured in commercials (Marks & Spencer, Vogue, Esquire alongside which she currently scores for for theatre.)
With both folk and electronic influences, Phoebe Coco captivates audiences with lyrical charm, from intimate settings of living rooms in Sofar Sounds, danceable music venues such as Sebright Arms, and Kings Head Members Club, to festivals such as Iceland Airwaves and Shambala.
Other collaborations and features include vocals on Lydian Collective album ‘Adventure’ reaching number one in Amazon Jazz Charts, and songs with forthcoming releases with London producers ‘Laszlo’ and ‘In Fields’ and NYC producer ‘Stray Echo’.
