Somehow, Swiss band Hot Like Sushi had the feeling that they couldn’t shake their booties as much to their own music as with their role models Bruno Mars, Anderson .Paak and Prince. They found the solution to that observation by flying to Los Angeles, where they immersed themselves in the local music scene and soaked up the West Coast swag. Together with producer Benny Steele (Justin Bieber, Jason Derulo, Nile Rodgers, David Guetta) they recorded five new songs, which they describe as ‘swag pop’.

Go Anywhere has just that. It’s direct, funky and a whole lotta fun. I agree with this review I once read, which stated they’re ‘the best thing to come out of Switzerland since chocolate’!
