Paul Draper announces the details of his new EP release.
“EP Three” features new versions and acoustic recordings of some of the stand out tracks from Draper’s acclaimed 2017 album “Spooky Action”.
Lead track “Jealously is A Powerful Emotion” is a tale of betrayal and coldly plotted revenge that builds from twisted, spectral electronics into a glorious swooping, swooning crescendo. Also featured on the EP are acoustic takes on “Jealousy…” and previous single “Things People Want”, as well as epic overhaul of the “EP Two” lead track “Friends Make The Worst Enemies” by Public Service Broadcasting.
“EP Three” will be released digitally via Kscope on March 16th, 2018.
The new EP is available to pre-order here.
Tracklist:
01. Jealousy Is a Powerful Emotion (Single Edit)
02. Things People Want (Acoustic)
03. Jealousy Is a Powerful Emotion (Acoustic)
04. Friends Make the Worst Enemies (Public Service Broadcasting Remix)
Paul Draper plays a series of previously announced shows in February and March. At those shows, Paul and his band will play a set of solo material before performing Mansun’s classic debut “Attack of the Grey Lantern” in full for the first time ever on the 21st anniversary of its release.
Following the UK shows, Paul Draper heads to the States to play a series of shows supporting Steven Wilson in North America in April/May. A limited edition signed vinyl LP – “Live at Scala” – will be available on the UK tour dates. The album features a recording of Paul’s recent sold out headline show at the iconic London venue. A CD version of the album will be available via independent record shops from February 16th 2018 or as a part of a double deluxe “Spooky Action” reissue.
