The Womack Sisters Announce Self-Titled Debut Album, Share “Chauffeur”

A new chapter rooted in legacy and lived experience begins for The Womack Sisters, who officially announce their long-awaited self-titled debut album, arriving August 14 via Daptone Records. Alongside the announcement, the trio, Zeimani, BG, and Kucha, unveil their powerful new single “Chauffeur,” a striking introduction to a record that blends classic soul traditions with deeply contemporary storytelling.


On “Chauffeur,” The Womack Sisters trade romanticism for reality. Inspired by their time working as Uber drivers, the track captures the grind of trying to make ends meet while holding onto bigger dreams.


“How many miles do I have to burn? / How many corners do I have to turn? …Just to keep my place?”


It’s a song grounded in real-life struggle, direct, unfiltered, and emotionally raw. That urgency carries into the arrangement, where swelling brass, aching strings, and a relentless rhythm section mirror the tension of survival. Even the faint presence of car horns bleeds into the track, blurring the line between life and music.


As Zeimani explains, the song is ultimately about perseverance:


“It’s about the hustle of life that we all are in… a song for the underdogs… as long as you have the faith, you will make it.”



Rather than bending toward industry trends, The Womack Sisters lean fully into the soul music that shaped them, drawing from the lineage of artists like Curtis Mayfield and Smokey Robinson while grounding their songwriting in present-day realities.


Across the album, each sister’s voice takes on its own identity. Kucha delivers a tender, gospel-tinged warmth, particularly on “I Am Your Season,” while Zeimani moves fluidly between restraint and emotional intensity on “Didn’t Mean Much to Me.” BG, meanwhile, brings a dynamic vocal range that bridges pop clarity with gospel depth, echoing the legacy embedded in their family name. But it’s in their harmonies, on tracks like “Chauffeur,” “You Went Away Too Long,” and “Laughter and Tears” where the project fully comes alive. Their voices intertwine with a natural chemistry that feels less constructed and more inherited.


At its core, The Womack Sisters is an autobiographical record, one that places sisterhood, resilience, and shared history at the forefront. That sentiment lands most clearly in the album’s closing refrain: “People come and go, but darling this I know / It will always be my sisters and me.” It’s both a personal statement and a thesis for the entire project.


The group will bring the album to the stage throughout 2026, joining Thee Sacred Souls and LA LOM on The Constellation Tour across North America.


On release day, August 14, they’ll mark a major milestone with a special performance alongside Al Green at the iconic Hollywood Bowl. From there, the tour stretches across the U.S. and Canada, with stops in cities like Vancouver, Denver, Chicago, and Atlanta, bringing their revivalist yet forward-looking soul sound to large amphitheaters and festival stages alike.


With their debut, The Womack Sisters aren’t just introducing themselves; they’re staking a claim. Rooted in legacy but driven by lived experience, The Womack Sisters feels less like a first album and more like a long-overdue arrival.
