The Womack Sisters Rosie Cohe When a group calling themselves the Womack Sisters announce a throwback soul album, the first thing they have to contend with is their legacy. Zeimani, Kucha, and BG Womack are the daughters of Linda and Cecil Womack, who made R&B records in the Eighties. Their grandfather (Linda’s dad) is Sam Cooke. And their uncle is Cecil’s older brother, R&B legend Bobby Womack.
In August, the trio will release The Womack Sisters, their self-titled debut, on Daptone Records. Fans of the label will recognize the textured harmonies and vintage arrangements that run through “If I Let You,” the group’s latest single, out today (July 8). Beginning with a driving organ, the bouncy soul-pop tune is a meditation on rushing into love.
“This song reminds me of a time when I rushed into love because of attraction: not asking enough questions, not staying true to myself, selling myself short,” Kucha Womack said in a statement. “For us, it’s a reminder to take your time to find love, and to find out who you’re really dealing with.”
