I bet you would.
At midday on Saturday 30th Jan we’re putting up our new E.P. on the player.
We spent a week recording it at Whitewood Studios in Liverpool with producer Danny Woodward (Ladytron, Hot Club de Paris, The Wombats) and now it’s time to be let out into the wilderness.
Our new website will be launched that day too! Where you can sign up to the mailing list and get one track as a free download. We’ll have physical copies onsale at gigs and on the Merchandise Page on the website.
Come and see us at one of our gigs at the run-up to SXSW for sneak peaks of new songs that we’re recording at EMI in London when we get back!
Love, PMATPP x
