The album is described by Sally and producer Johan Agebj�rn as "a bit more poppy and varied" than the debut, taking influences from genres like trance, cosmic disco, acid, ambient and jazz while still having 80's disco as its base, and definitely keeping the romantic feel of Disco Romance. "It will hopefully make you fall in love with the person sitting next to you on the bus," says Sally.
Sally will first be releasing her single, "Miracle," on Paper Bag Records in North America on June 16th. "Miracle" is written and produced by Johan Agebj�rn and Roger Gunnarsson, and includes a remix by up-and-coming Bulgarian producer Bogdan Irk�k. My Guilty Pleasure features a variety of contributors, including Gunnarsson, Swedish italo-disco duo Cloetta Paris, and German nu-disco producer Tensnake, who remixed Sally's "I'll Be By Your Side" into a European club hit.
The name "Sally Shapiro" refers to both the Swedish duo, consisting of the producer Johan Agebj�rn and an anonymous singer, as well as the pseudonym of the singer herself. In December 2004 Agebj�rn discovered Shapiro's gentle and beautiful voice while the two were singing Christmas carols together. About one year later they uploaded their first track, "I'll Be By Your Side," to italo-disco forums and were immediately being contacted by record labels.
