It’s out on Toni Sancho’s own Blue Daisy label.
Toni Sancho has released a lyric video for her new track Goodbye!, another winning showcase of the fusion of Caribbean and British cultures which is informing this early material.
“I wrote this song in the middle of the first lockdown,” Sancho said. “I remember life felt like a machine; very mechanical and cold. Saying goodbye didn’t feel emotional at all because of how numb I felt at the time. The song is about moving through and out of this numbness.”
There was great relief in this for me as a musician and as a person. I couldn’t find a way to reconcile the two cultures before this point. I always felt other.
Sancho is live next supporting Baskery at The Star Inn, Guildford on November 16th.
