Wild Child's Kelsey Wilson Goes Solo As Sir Woman With 'Bitch' EP
Austin-based singer and Wild Child co-founder Kelsey Wilson has announced her debut solo EP under a new, "acid-trip inspired" stage name, Sir Woman. Her Bitch EP will arrive October 16, 2020 via Nine Mile Records. Most recently, Sir Woman has shared the new disco-inspired song, “Can’t Stay Mad.”
Wilson says:
"'Can't Stay Mad' is all about warmth, sensuality and humor. We laced it with string and horn arrangements to rival the classics of 70's disco. We wanted to combine new and old school so that it feels like it's from the future, but it's always been around."
Since embarking on her solo project in 2019, Sir Woman has released three singles “Highroad,” “Speak” and “Making Love”, and performed a Pop-Up Session with KUTX.
Bitch is a genre-bending, Motown-influenced five-song EP, and Wilson's backing band includes drummer Amber Baker and back-up singers Spice and Roy Jr., as well as guitarist Nik Lee, multi-instrumentalist Dan Creamer of The Texas Gentlemen, and Country-Pop artist Robert Ellis.
Wilson comments on the EP:
“This EP is me finding what makes me feel good and falling in love with myself. A mix of everything that makes my body move — pop, soul, gospel, funk, folk, and R&B. It feels so right to make a record that has my actual heart in it. These songs are the part of me that wants to help people fall in love with themselves through music. I can’t wait for everyone to hear it."
Sir Woman is set to celebrate the EP’s release with an October 23 live-stream performance from Austin.
