   About Jape Squad
MEDIA RELEASE MEDIA RELEASE MEDIA RELEASE MEDIA RELEASE MEDIA RELEASE The fourth album following 2005’s ‘Head over Heels’ was recorded in part at Second World Studios in Nagambie with Adam Donovan (Augie March), and in part at Sound Vault with the band’s own producer extraordinaire Michael Alonso who has worked with Spiderbait, Magic Dirt and Gaslight Radio. Included for the first time is a lyric sheet illuminating the wide range of topics covered by the various songwriters who share influences such as writers Fyodor Dostoyevsky and Franz Kafka. Musically, late 60’s era Rolling Stones for their groove factor, Big Star for songwriting and a dash of Pavement are heavy influences throughout. ‘Super Friday’ is sometimes sparse, layered and laid back grooves, sometimes punchy, in your face rock, Jape Squad style. “Jape Squad are charmingly deceptive……” (Singles by Simone, Beat August 2007) Albums to date: Modern Holiday /Corduroy -2003 Breakfast with /Spooky- 2004 Head over Heels /Shock- 2005

I LOVE those tracks! I enjoy them more every time I listen to 'em. Unlike my music, as every song I write is better than than the next. Anyway, write to me and tell me where I can BUY it so I don't have to strap on headphones and go through the monkey motions to be able to listen to the songs, plus I'd like to hear more recorded stuff! And Frankie, would you like a Bundy and Coke?
