Coming soon
The Last Dinner Party announce ‘Prelude To Ecstasy: Acoustics and Covers’ album
They’ve also shared their take on Sparks’ ‘This Town Ain’t Big Enough For Both Of Us’.
Former DIY cover stars The Last Dinner Party have unveiled plans to release a deluxe edition of their Mercury Prize shortlisted debut album ‘Prelude To Ecstasy’, which will include reimagined versions of the LP’s tracks as well as covers of some of their favourite songs.
Slated for release on 11th October, ‘Prelude To Ecstasy: Acoustics and Covers’ has been introduced via their storming take on Sparks’ 1974 single ‘This Town Ain’t Big Enough For Both Of Us’, which received its live debut over the weekend at Reading Festival (dive into our full report of what went down on Saturday here).
What’s more, the band are also gearing up to release a short ‘Prelude To Ecstasy’ film (which will be screened at London’s Soho Cinema and live-streamed to TLDP’s YouTube channel on 12th September), before hitting the road once more for a sold-out 22 date run of shows around the UK.
You can grab a copy of our February 2024 print magazine - featuring The Last Dinner Party on the cover - via our online shop, or read the cover interview here.
