Stanley Super 800 + Jape
Czar promotions presents A double headliner show with Stanley Super 800 + Jape
Saturday 18th June. TICKETS E10
In April last year Stanley Super 800 released their eponymously-titled début album on their own record label - Bingo. It features ten tracks full vibrant ideas - mixed up acoustic and electronic instruments fired with energy and originality roam diverse styles ranging from pop to post rock - while managing to hold it all together with unique melodies and lyrics.
Constant gigging has seen the band's sound evolve somewhat over the last year; moving away from their folktronic/electro roots behind for rockier ground while still remaining fresh and avoiding musical cul de sacs. They're even known to mix in a country music version of their set, incorporating banjo, fiddle and slide guitar.
Meanwhile, the music of Jape was a breath of fresh air to the smoggy atmosphere of Dublin. The first album Cosmosphere'’ released last year on the Volta Sounds label showed Jape's experimental side and sense of humour with stoner folk and 8 bit electronics rubbing shoulders with friendly ease. It caught the attention of some notable reviewers and DJs with Donal Dineen
