Artist Close-Up: Pinky Pinky Serve A Turkey Dinner
Listening to Pinky Pinky’s Turkey Dinner, I kept on thinking of the “Drapes” in Cry Baby. A campy, greaser gang singing to love, lust, and social alienation. Produced by Hanni El Khatib and Jonny Bell, Pinky Pinky’s debut, combines a sense of colorful derangement to emotional isolation; as if being a freak, geek, or nerd is a theatrical event.
If you know what it is to be an outcast, then you know it can be a painful, euphoric life. True, soulful freedom can lie in being different because no one even tries to cast or chain with social norms because you are bonafide, “not normal.” In this notion. Pinky Pinky deliver songs such as, “If It Didn’t Hurt,” “Loose Change,” and “Applecheeks.” They sing to the fact that some people can’t hide their strange; they don’t have the look, the vernacular, or the sheer presence to be a flower that peels itself from the wall. In this sense, Pinky Pinky land their pop-rock in the garage section.
Pinky Pinky – “My Friend Sean” (Official Audio)
There is a lax grunge to Pinky Pinky’s sound that reminds me of the days when you and your friends popped an Andre in the latter’s garage and thought you ruled the world. When mixing drinks, conversations, and goals, everything seems to bubble together of which their rhythms do the same. Led by singer Anastasia Sanchez, her vocals feel low and shimmery like, glitter under dim light. She combines smokiness with emotiveness to give Pinky Pinky an oddly disco-dance vibe. As if songs such as, “Sticking Around” and “Mr Sunday” were meant for you to dreamily dance to your blues. The result is a record that places Pinky Pinky on the music map, while saying how far they can go. To Buy Turkey Dinner From Pinky Pinky Click Here.
