Retro Pop Magazine July 2024 Retour à l'édition précédente

It’s not uncommon for girl group stars to break away and launch solo careers, but Natasha Hamilton falls into the unique category of waiting 20 years before going it alone!

She topped the charts back in the early-2000s with Atomic Kitten with a run of pop smashes that earned the pop trio their place in the history books, but now she’s back with her own record label and a brand new sound that sees her back doing what she does best.

Sticking with the theme of going solo, this month we also check in with Marcella Detroit, who is celebrating 30 years of her post-Shakespears Sister album, ‘Jewel’, with a new expanded reissue of the record, plus there’s plenty more from soul legend Mica Paris as she returns to the stage for Chaka Khan’s Meltdown Festival in London, while singer-songwriter Kate Nash opens up about her epic new album, ‘9 Sad Symphonies’.

She’s written songs for everyone from Cher, Britney Spears and Carly Rae Jepsen, to Katy Perry, Kelly Clarkson and Kesha, but now Bonnie McKee is finally releasing her ‘Hot City’ album - a massive, all-out collection of pop smashes - and she takes us behind some of her biggest hits.

All that and more in the latest issue of RETROPOP!
