Hold On It's Easy

Hold On It's Easy is a 2015 studio album by the British band Cornershop. It consists of easy listening re-recordings of tracks from the band's 1994 album Hold On It Hurts, with the Elastic Big Band.^[1] Singer Tjinder Singh said of the album "There was also an element of humour about doing a very noisy Riot Grrrl album in an easy-listening format. It came about because over the years we have got to know many a different musician, so it made the whole thing possible."^[1]
