Description

The Womack Sisters turn real-life struggle into hard-hitting soul on "Chauffeur," a deeply personal track inspired by the sisters' experiences working as car service drivers while trying to make rent.

Driven by a heavy groove and impassioned background vocals, "Chauffeur" doesn't hide its story behind metaphor. It's about working, driving, counting fares, and watching the miles pile up while still wondering whether it'll be enough to keep a roof overhead. The sisters bring that frustration and exhaustion directly into the performance, giving the song an urgency that feels immediate and unmistakably real.

The flip side strips things back with an instrumental version, putting the track's powerful rhythm section and classic soul production front and center.

Why We Carry It

This is soul music doing what it does best: taking real life, however difficult or ordinary, and turning it into something powerful. "Chauffeur" hits hard because The Womack Sisters aren't telling someone else's story. They lived it.

Paired with the instrumental on the B-side and released by Daptone Records, it's exactly the kind of modern soul 45 we love putting in the bins.
