Following universal acclaim for her debut album UNDO THE BLUE, Iraina Mancini and Needle Mythology Records are delighted to announce a new single, SUGAR HIGH.
Swiftly emerging as a favourite among Iraina’s fans, the luxuriant rapture of Sugar High finally gets its moment in the spotlight when it’s released as a single in its own right on September 15. About the song, Iraina says: “I wrote Sugar High about falling in love and the world around you turning technicolour. All your senses are heightened and life just seems sweeter.”
The single is accompanied by a sumptuous video shot at New Century Hall in Manchester and a sensational remix by St Etienne designed to propel the listener beyond the clouds into a lysergic loved-up dreamscape. Sarah Cracknell from the band said “We loved Iraina’s ‘Undo The Blue’ single and asked her to open for us at our Manchester Ritz show last summer. Her music complements ours perfectly, we quickly became pals and the debut LP has been on heavy rotation here since it landed last month.” Pete Wiggs was equally effusive “I was immediately taken by the swoony melody and summer, daydreamy vibes of ’Sugar High’ so we thought we’d do an old-school style remix with a hint of a lovers rock feeling to it for your Indian summer reveries.”
Since its release last month, Undo The Blue has been rapturously received by fans and critics alike. Shindig Magazine hymned “a playfully radical first album… perfectly amalgamating disco, psych, pop and rock”, while The Times singled out Iraina’s “intoxicating way with a melody”, describing her as “a new heroine to make us swoon.” Iraina has also enjoyed strong support from several DJs across BBC 6 Music, all echoing the sentiments of early supporter Lauren Laverne, who declared that “this is an artist I absolutely love.”
