The Womack Sisters make their Daptone debut on August 22

The Womack Sisters – daughters of Cecil & Linda Womack – release their new Daptone single August 22. Check it out.

The Womack Sisters 

"If You Want Me" b/w "I Just Don't Want You (To Say Goodbye)" 

Welcome to the newest member of the Daptone family, The Womack Sisters. They're the granddaughters of the legendary Sam Cooke, daughters of renowned songwriters and producers Cecil and Linda Womack (of Womack & Womack), and nieces of singer-songwriter and R&B icon Bobby Womack.

The debut Daptone single from Soul Music nobility, The Womack Sisters, is a one-two punch of soulful excellence. "If You Want Me" displays uncompromising rawness with pop-sensible control in equal measure. Propelled by the percussive attack of the piano and the hard-hitting call and response vocals, the track has a satisfyingly feel-good swing, allowing the groove to accentuate the hook. Sure to be a universally filed disc for DJs looking to bring some life to the dancefloor.

On "I Just Don’t Want You (To Say Goodbye)," sisters Kucha and Zeimani’s plaintive background vocals and BG’s powerful lead come together like a harmonic bouquet in full bloom. A deeply soulful ballad at its core, it tells a tale of someone coming to terms with the pain of being in love with Mr. Wrong when you know you deserve Mr. Right. 

The Womack Sisters' debut Daptone single is out August 22. You can pre-order it via Rough Trade. For the moment, you can hear both sides right here. Watch Kucha & Zeimani's interview with Tamron Hall from 2023 below.
