Micachu and The Shapes @ Bold Tendencies, Jul 30

29 July 2015

Micachu and The Shapes return three years after the release of their last record for an already sold-out concert at London’s Bold Tendencies on July 30.

The trio of friends return almost by accident: what had started as an off-the-cuff jam session secretly recorded by drummer Marc Pell quickly developed into a new record that functions more as a collection of sonic ideas than a traditional album, described by Mica Levi as being recorded “non-stop, in one avalanche”.

Good Sad Happy Bad – which follows the success of their 2012 album, Never, and that of Levi’s critically acclaimed score for the sci-fi thriller Under the Skin – is described by the singer as being “the most free we have been”, and is out September 11 via Rough Trade.
