Neo-Soul singer, songwriter and artist Becky Sikasa makes her highly-anticipated return with her new single ‘Work Of Love’, out everywhere on 10 August.

Following the release of her debut EP ‘Twelve Wooden Boxes’ last year, Becky shares her emotionally charged new single ‘Work Of Love’ - once again showcasing her natural gift of telling poignant yet deeply relatable stories through her lyrics. Becky’s music is inspired by scenes from love, life, art and literature. With a honey-soaked voice that is as versatile as it is grounded, she delves deep to tie her heart to her words.

Her music evokes the understated magic of Cleo Sol and storytelling prowess of Olivia Dean, effortlessly weaving lyrics and harmonies together with colourful arrangements into rummaging, vibrant off-pop tracks. Organic R'n'B productions of warm guitars and piano chords give her space to tell her story. Lyrically, ‘Work Of Love’ explores the complex emotions experienced during and after a first love.

Speaking of Work Of Love, Becky says, “I think going into a relationship - especially your first love - with a certain naiveté can be beautiful. My first proper heartbeat shattered that understanding of if-you-just-love-each-other-enough movie-love, left me feeling not just disillusioned but (maybe due to my Adhd fueled larger-than-life emotions), properly let down,  world-weary. Like my heart wasn’t just broken for this love but for love in general. Like the love I’d been sold was a lie.”

With ‘Work Of Love’ being the first track from Becky’s upcoming new collection, 2023 shows no signs of slowing down for the multi-faceted artist - watch this space.
