Sally Shapiro – Somewhere Else CD

From Sally Shapiro comes Somewhere Else, a dance, electronic and pop album on Paper Bag. This is the CD edition. This edition was released on February 26, 2013.

2013 album from the Swedish Electro-Pop duo. The album breaks the band's silence as the first release since their 2009 full-length, Guilty Pleasure. The duo's melancholic harmonies and the '80s disco feel are still present, but there are also indie pop influences (a la Belle And Sebastian), as well as touches of funk, IDM, trance, jazz and ambient, Shapiro says. 'The title describes the recurrent theme in the music and my life, to somehow never be satisfied with what you have, or where you are-to always wish you were somewhere else.' Known for her shyness, Shapiro does not reveal her real name, will not even let musical partner Johan Agebjorn into the studio when she sings, and has never performed her songs live. REVIEW ''Ear candy, ethereal, featherweight dance pop.'' --USA Today''A fragile, wavering voice swaddled in shimmering synths that recall a particularly bitter-sweet flavor of European '80s dance pop.'' --Spin''Achingly sweet and earnest first single. [''What Can I Do''] --Stereogum
