"Breakout" by Swing Out Sister

Patreon voted for us to dive into the group Swing Out Sister and their aptly named breakout hit, "Breakout." Written by lead singer Corinne Drewery while recovering from a fractured skull, the song emerged during a stressful period when the band was worried about being dropped from their label. Despite being prolific and never slowing down, they were never able to capture another hit on US radio. The band, known for their distinctive blend of jazz, pop, and sophisticated production, has maintained a loyal fan base and continues to release music that resonates deeply with listeners. Join us this week as we explore their career, from their early days to their continued evolution, and decide if Swing Out Sister's catalog deserves way more of your attention.
