Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Familia (2016)

Sophie Ellis-Bextor has announced she will release her new album Familia on 2nd September which will be preceded by new single 'Come With Us' released on 19th July, both via her own label EBGB's and Red/Essential. Familia will be Sophie Ellis-Bextor's sixth studio album and follows her #4 charting and silver certified album 'Wanderlust', which marked a critically acclaimed change in musical direction for Sophie. Released in January 2014, 'Wanderlust' went on to spend 6 months in the UK chart and gave Sophie her first top 10 record since 2007's 'Trip The Light Fantastic'. 'Wanderlust' has gone on to sell in excess of 100,000 copies. The lead track into the record 'Come With Us' brings with it a touch of Sophie's original disco sound. Upbeat from start to finish, it is an instant disco-pop track that is as modern as it is retro with a completely addictive chorus. Sophie says it is what happens when Ed Harcourt and I write Four on the floor. It is a live disco song about the lure of a cult. 'Familia' features 11-tracks, which continue to showcase Sophie's newfound lyrical and musical maturity, from the beautiful and emotive unrequited to the synth-laded ballad 'Death Of Love' and the alt-pop buoyant opener 'Wild Forever'.
