She's
Not Yr F*ckin' Baby!
Nicky Click’s, You’re already
A Member is
her first CD on Crunks Not Dead -- an Olympia, WA-based label filled
to the brim with electro-pop acts and fantastic ’80s-era
costumes.
You’re already A Member is a 15 track
collection examining power in language; the politics of passing;
and purely fun topics like exercising and the importance of dancing.
The CD also features three songs with fellow Church of Girl Radio
Stars, Scream Club, along with other guests
and a handful of remixes.
Much like Le Tigre or Gravy Train, Nicky
melds her politics with energetic electronic dance music. She is
also an aspiring hip-hop diva in the Peaches mold, reminding us “we
should really love on another cos all we really have is each other”.
No matter what her message, she puts her heart and soul into her
performances.
She performs at diverse venues like the Seattle Queering
Femininity conference and Ladyfest. She spent last winter in Europe
opening for U.K. grime sensation Lady Sovereign. With Sov’s
name on the lips of music bloggers everywhere, Click’s success
can’t be far behind. Nicky likens her sound to "needles
sewing your heart back together"; surrender your cardio-bits
to her.
