Data Insight
Six of the eleven tracks are member-written, and Rhona Bennett is on all six alongside Terry Ellis and Cindy Herron. Nearly thirty years after four singers were hired to perform someone else's songs, the group releases a record on its own label that it largely wrote.
Electric Café came out in April 2018 on the group's own label with eOne, fourteen years after Soul Flower. Eleven tracks with Raphael Saadiq and Dem Jointz alongside Foster and McElroy.
