Up-and-coming acts: SoKo

SOKO Up and coming acts: SoKo Normally, I’m the sort of writer who can listen to a girl popster or group without using the word ‘attractive’. I mean, I’m happy to let the music speak for itself, more often that not. However, I’m about to kick all that out of the window and become a drooling mess of a man with eyes popping out on cartoon stalks, declaring undying love and getting into all kinds of problems with my girlfriend. Why? Look at that picture of French folkie-popper, SoKo.
SoKo creates a weird and wonderful folk-pop which lies somewhere between the mindwrongs of The Moldy Peaches and… WHO CARES?! LOOK AT THAT PICTURE! SHE’S SO FIT! Ahem. SoKo is a French lady, which makes her vocal delivery all the more appealing, and her sense of humour is from another planet. I mean, she’s got songs that chirrup “I think I’m pregnant though I haven’t had sex” and “I will never love you more than the drummer of The Flaming Lips.”
She’s currently without a deal, but it’s surely only a matter of time before she gets snapped up. Why? SHE’S GORGEOUS! Right, gotta dash, my girlfriend is throwing my records down the stairs and cutting up my clothes… Visit SoKo’s Myspace here
