Say She She

Say She She is a Brooklyn-based 'discodelic' soul ensemble formed in 2021, led by the vocal trio of Piya Malik, Sabrina Cunningham, and Nya Brown. Malik brought significant pedigree to the group from her work with El Michels Affair and Chicano Batman, grounding the project in the contemporary vintage-soul scene.

Their sound identity is a meticulous homage to the late-70s disco-funk era, specifically citing Nile Rodgers and Chic as foundational influences. However, they distinguish themselves through the use of operatic vocal techniques and psychedelic textures, moving beyond simple revivalism into a space of art-pop sophistication. Their breakthrough album 'Silver' (2023) solidified their position as leaders in the modern soul revival, earning critical acclaim for its lush production and social consciousness. They are central to a New York scene that bridges the gap between Daptone-style traditionalism and more experimental, genre-fluid soul. Their influence web connects classic disco, 90s trip-hop vocal sensibilities, and modern indie-rock's penchant for analog aesthetics.
