We all found each other because we were probably meant to.” is how Wignall describes it. Far from a typical hierarchy often found in bands, WARGIRL acts as a unit, a commune-like collaboration bringing out the best in everyone. “We appreciate and enjoy our differences and learn from them rather than fear them. In the end, it has to be fun, it has to move us in some way.” With pop chameleons like David Bowie as a their paradigms in terms of eclecticism, WARGIRL are bringing the love, peace and harmony vibe of the late sixties into today. “We don’t fight, we don’t argue, we make music together from a very true place and we do so with spontaneity and passion. We are dancing our asses off when we make these songs in the studio because we are always recording them almost completely live.” This time around, they built their songs around Samantha Parks remarkable, moving, broad vocal range and clever lyrics. “She’s such a great singer that we really wanted to feature that and pull more elements of soul and funk into the sound since she is so naturally comfortable with that.” (Sams father was Bull of “Bull and the Matadors” a well known funk artist in the 70s). The songs on this album were mixed by genius engineer/producer Mark Neill best known for his producing of Black Keys “Brothers” and Dan Aurbach’s “Keep It Hid”. Wignall states, “He breathed a radical frantic breath of creativity and low end into the tracks, I’ve never heard mixes quite like this before”.
