Hollie Cook - Twice [Green]

Originally released in 2014, Twice marked a confident and richly textured evolution for Hollie Cook, building on the sun-soaked reggae-pop foundation of her self-titled debut. Produced by longtime collaborator Prince Fatty, the album expands her signature lovers rock sound with deep dub atmospheres, cinematic orchestration, and global rhythmic influences.

Sweeping string arrangements from the Macedonian Radio Symphonic Orchestra and choir give the record a lush, widescreen feel, while Brazilian-inspired percussion, disco flourishes, and classic reggae basslines keep the grooves grounded and warm. Highlights include the rolling, string-laced “Desdemona,” the rootsy and bass-heavy “Postman,” and the hazy, digi-dub title track. Elsewhere, “Looking For Real Love” showcases Cook’s soulful, melancholic vocal delivery, while “Superfast” channels the spirit of a timeless reggae classic.

Featuring guest appearances from reggae legends and soul icons alike, Twice stands as a sophisticated and deeply musical statement. This 2025 repress on transparent green vinyl offers the perfect opportunity to rediscover a modern reggae classic from one of the genre’s most distinctive voices.
