Jape is Grape


May 12th is the release date for Jape's sophomore LP Ritual.

Anyone lucky enough to witness his appearance last November at A Month of Sundays (one of our favourite gigs last year) will be d'lighted to see Phil Lynott (one of the more obscure tribute tracks you're likely to hear) on the tracklisting, along with established live tracks like Christopher and Anthony. Early listens suggest that it could be something special, combining folksie electronica and indie with his trademark knack for a good story.

As mentioned below, he's also playing as part of Foggy Notions' Future Days festival, an early contender for Sneaky Highlight of the Summer 2008.

If you're one of the many, many people who feel cripplingly marginalised by their lack of "I was at Dan Deacon" clout in music-related discourse, you should already have your ticket for this twosie. We can't wait.
