United States – Rising independent artist SumcallmeChico delves wholeheartedly into his Latin roots and all round passion for music, with the diverse and engaging album ‘Tainted Lover’.
His third studio album to date, ‘Tainted Lover’ showcases the very best of Chico’s uniquely creative way with fusing genres and drives with strength of songwriting and performance for a boldly memorable collection. Packed with robust sounds, rousing anthems, and culturally driven lyrics, ‘Tainted Lover’ will give Chico fans more than they hoped for and draw in new listeners.
The leading single ‘Friends’, released on July 9th, already boasts tens of thousands of streams. The highly anticipated album promises 24 original tracks and looks set to light up Chico’s reputation even more so.
Releasing September 23rd, ‘Tainted Lover’ speaks volumes on behalf of Chico’s background and devotion to music. His journey is one of unique experiences and heritage, and both the bilingual lyrics and musicality reflect this.
As such, the album offers two alternate covers – one representing Urban Reggaeton, the other leaning towards contemporary Pop. One will be for digital release only, the other for a physical print.
Born and raised in Palm Springs, Ca. in the renowned Coachella Valley, Chico displayed his musical talent early on, through playing saxophone and percussion which later transformed into a passion for Djing. Chico then used his knowledge of music obtained through his DJing and with the slowing down of the world due to the Covid pandemic in 2020, used the opportunity to begin producing his own beats, musical arrangements, and writing his own songs, which is just a testament to his creativity and musical capacity.
All 24 songs on this Deluxe Album were written by Chico. The project was produced by LA’s one and only Frank Rio, who has worked with Chico since the beginning of his career in 2020. ‘Tainted Lover’ is slated to make an impactful presence in the independent music scene with major mainstream potential.
