If you were ever a fan of The L word, you may remember seeing Leisha Hailey as the character Alice. We’ll shes back, Leisha that is, as one half of the electro-dance-pop-amazing duo Uh Huh Her along with fellow stellar musician Camila Grey.
Working on their forthcoming full length Nocturnes, the dreamy "Same High" was included on the soundtrack of the Oscar nominated movie, The Kids are Alright. And after hearing "Same High" flavored with 80’s dance and synth pop, it was no surprise to me that the duo enlisted Wendy Melvoin (Prince & the Revolution) for co-production duties. These ladies released The Black and Blue EP earlier this week to whet their fan’s appetites, in case you couldn’t wait for the full length. The band has made the title track "Black and Blue" a free download over on SoundCloud while "Never the Same" can be scored for free too via Nylon Magazine.
If scoring 1/3 of the EP makes you want to grab it, you have two options: the digital download through the band’s store or the physical copy that you can only get your paws on by seeing the band live on tour. Uh Huh Her will be playing 4/01 @ The El Ray in LA and 4/02 @ Velvet Jones in Santa Barbara.
