The release of the album “Beyond the Pale” has been delayed. It will now be coming out on the 4th of September.
“It’s a drag to have to make these changes but we’re sure you understand why they’re necessary. We are looking into ways of doing some kind of “virtual performances” in the interim. We miss you!”
IN THE MEANTIME
You can keep fit whilst cooped-up indoors by dancing to “House Music All Night Long” – suddenly lines such as “Saturday Night Cabin Fever in House Nation” & “Goddam this claustrophobia!” have taken on a new meaning – but a domestic disco really is quite a pleasant method of passing the time.
Shall we?
Stay safe – we will prevail!
JARV IS… with you – now more than ever
JARV IS… are pleased to announce their debut album “Beyond the Pale” which will be released on May 1st, 2020 via Rough Trade Records/ Rhtymethod. The album will be available on LP/CD/Cassette.
Listen to a new single from the album ‘House Music All Night Long’ and watch the video here.
This is the first original music from Jarvis Cocker since the “Further Complications” album in 2009.
JARV IS… a band featuring Jarvis Cocker (vocals, guitar, percussion), Serafina Steer (harp, keyboards, vocals), Emma Smith (violin, guitar vocals), Andrew McKinney (bass, vocals), Jason Buckle (synthesiser & electronic treatments) & Adam Betts (drums, percussion, vocals).
JARV IS… formed to play a show at the Sigur Ros “Norður og Niður” festival in Iceland at the very end of 2017.
JARV IS… was conceived as a way of writing songs in collaboration with an audience. As the material they were playing was in a state of flux the band decided to record their live shows so that they could monitor how the songs were developing. After an appearance at the Desert Daze festival in California, Geoff Barrow (Portishead, Beak>) suggested that these recordings could be used as the basis for an album.
Overdubs & vocals were added at Narcissus Studios in Neasden, London. Post-production work took place at Jason Buckle’s Place du Big Boss studio in Raynes Park, London. The album was mixed by Craig Silvey at Toast Studios in West London.
The first single from the album “Must I Evolve?” was released in May 2019 & appeared in many “Top 10 Tracks of the Year” lists.
JARV IS… an ongoing live experience because life is an ongoing live experience.
Or, to put it another way:
THIS IS NOT A LIVE ALBUM – it’s an ALIVE ALBUM.
