BLOW ME AWAY – SABA
Gender-bending Sydney pop singer Saba lists The Presets and Hot Chip as his major influences, but his inspiration goes further back: think Marilyn, Boy George and other fierce pop divas of the ’80s.
Debut single Blow Me Away is a feelgood — if undeniably cheesy — slice of Hi-NRG electro-pop, available now on iTunes, www.redeyerecords.com and www.sabascene.com
B-sides on the single include a clutch of dancefloor-ready remixes and Bondi Beach, an ode to every Sydney gay’s favourite waterside meat market that includes the memorable couplet “suntanned young bodies/ look great in our new cossies”.
