Rather than hook up with an Indian singer of existing repute, the first collaborative album by the criminally underrated Cornershop is recorded with Bubbley Kaur, an unknown who was working in a Preston launderette and singing in cellar clubs prior to their chance meeting.
Kaur wrote all the (Hindi) lyrics and melodies, and her beautifully saccharine tones interweave with summery Punjabi-psych-funk grooves from Tjinder Singh & co. Enchanting stuff.
