Spector have delivered a little surprise today with the release of a new EP entitled Reloaded.
Lead track Even When You Pass My Way got its first play in the UK on BBC 6Music earlier this week as the band look forward to a London show at the Tufnell Park Dome Dome on December 4th with support from The Ninth Wave and WOOZE.
“Having always been an under rehearsed indie band struggling to perform quite ambitious pop songs (and usually stifling them in the process) we decided recently that we were now mature/old enough to write songs we actually knew how to record,” frontman Fred Macpherson declares.
“This was helped a lot by the addition of (our second!) French drummer Nicolas Pi and Shaun Paterson on bass, who’s played with everyone from Baxter Dury and Jamie T to Les Incompetents. It’s a cliché, but touring this year was the best we’ve ever sounded.”
“As for the songs there’s a couple from the top and a couple from the bottom. Tenner, which we’ve been playing for years, Love Will Do Your Head Right In which is one of my favourite we’ve ever worked on, and Even When You Pass My Way which I wrote for someone else but they politely declined. A blessing or a curse?”
