Micachu & the Shapes will release their second studio album ‘NEVER’ on 20th July 2012 via Rough Trade Records. ‘NEVER’ was self-produced by the band, recorded at band member Marc Pell’s studio in Stratford and mixed by Dillip Harris and the band. It is the follow-up to their critically acclaimed debut ‘Jewellery’ (2009).
Micachu & the Shapes are in the process of making videos for each of ‘NEVER’s fourteen tracks, to be released shortly.
In 2011, using unorthodox homemade instruments, Micachu & the Shapes released the live album ‘Chopped & Screwed’, a collaboration with the London Sinfonietta Orchestra whom Micachu wrote an orchestral piece for in 2010 which was subsequently performed as part of the Ether Festival. Micachu is currently an artist-in-residence at London’s Southbank Centre; the youngest individual musician to be granted this unique role.
