Release Notes:
Having just finished her first us tour supporting the virgins, adopted
new york resident, lissy trullie releases her (self-produced) debut uk
single 'boy boy', on makemine records. the single comes amid much
excitement in the us about her, having captivated audiences with her
performances at last year's cmj showcase. a confident yet effortless
performer, lissy has been playing guitar since she was 11. her love of
music began at an early age and was perhaps cemented when she used to
be taken to operation ivy gigs when just 9 years old.
First single, 'boy boy' is the perfect example of her ability to pen
hook-laden, sharp-tongued songs that live and breath the spirit of
chrissie hynde, blondie and television. there is a simple elegance to
lissy's music. from her unique vocal styling (that knows just when to
move up a tone) to her unadorned guitar work to her coy but razor sharp
lyrics, as seen in 'boy boy's opening couplet: "you've got a funny face
/ and a crooked smile / you're a prince in some world / but not in
mine". the single's flip-side you bleed you is a gentler, woozy effort
highlighting lissy's depth of song writing.
