Description
Tongue Tied is the sophomore album from Gemma Cullingford, one half of Sink Ya Teeth. Its a progressive follow up to her debut Let Me Speak which garnered support from the likes of Steve Lamacq, Amy Lame, Nemone, Chris Hawkins, Jamz Supernova, John Kennedy and James Endeacott, plus glowing reviews in Mojo, Uncut and Electronic Sound.
Written and produced from Gemmas humble home studio in Norfolk, Tongue Tied blends many styles of electronica from 70s experimental and new wave, early 80s electro, acid house and techno to noughties electro clash, topped with her own vocal style to produce a unique and fresh sound. It explores relationships and the different emotions they can bring, from paranoia, yearning and helplessness to lust, shyness and just downright wanting to dance.
For the cover artwork on Tongue Tied, Gemma has collaborated with visual artist Kelda Storm who shares Gemmas love for bright, contrasting neon colours and minimal bold designs. She uses the iconography of feminine lips across her work as a symbol of speech and voice.
