About This Item
2021 from the British singer/songwriter. Toyah made the album Posh Pop with her long-term songwriting partner Simon Darlow. Posh Pop is a strong collection of infectious and affirmative pop songs that are as joyous as they are reflective, from the cosmic groove of InchSpace DanceInch, to the sun-kissed anthem of unity InchSummer Of LoveInch. The album is crafted with evocative storytelling and musicianship from Toyah, Simon Darlow (guitars, keyboards, cello), Bobby Willcox (guitar) and Jeremy Stacey (drums). Posh Pop opens with the energy-burst of InchLevitateInch and leads the listener on a journey that climaxes in the soaring, intergalactic-tinged InchTake Me HomeInch. The album was inspired by the world we find ourselves in today and touches on the ever-present desire to be 'famous for fifteen minutes' a la Andy Warhol, escaping the everyday, but above all staying connected to humankind beyond computer screens and geography. Produced by Simon Darlow, Posh Pop is Toyah's first brand new studio solo album since 2008 and twenty-fifth album since 1979. Album Tracks 1. Levitate 2. Zoom Zoom 3. The Bride Will Return 4.
