LEEDS SINGLES CLUB CPWM REVEAL DETAILS OF 3RD SINGLE FEATURING – ZOZO & ESPER SCOUT

Come Play With Me, the Leeds based singles club releasing split 7” vinyl is set to release the 3rd single in the series on 27th May 2016.

Described by Clash as ‘fast becoming an imprint to watch’ Come Play With Me’s latest single looks to continue the precedent it has set of highlighting the awesome diversity of great music coming out of the area with bands like Cinerama (The Wedding Present), Harkin (Sleater Kinney, Sky Larkin), Fizzy Blood and OFFICERS. The third installment of Come Play With Me will feature new tracks from ZoZo and Esper Scout.

 Esper Scout are a rock band driven by empowering, characterful guitars and bass, passionate lyrical content and dynamic drums. Formed by childhood friends Kirsty and Sarah, who met bassist Rebecca as teenagers, the three began writing and collaborating together in various projects until a point of focus in 2011 when Esper Scout was born. In the 5 years since they formed Esper Scout they have constantly gigged, written & released their music through their own label Bomb the Twist as well as heading out on a UK tour supporting The Cribs. Both Esper Scout & ZoZo are members of Leeds DIY collective and rehearsal space Chunk. 

‘We’ve known about Come Play With Me since the announcement of the label’s first release last year. There’s such a sense of community in Leeds and an endearing, connecting underdog spirit, to which in ways we can really relate’  says Sarah Statham of Esper Scout when asked about working with Come Play With me ‘CPWM understands this and want help how they can. That’s something we really respect and have been keen to work with. There’s a refreshing sense of honesty. You know so through what they say and do that their excitement and investment in furthering emerging music is simmering at its core

Our song is rooted in Russia and other countries affected by the Cold War. Inspired by ‘How the Beatles Rocked the Kremlin’, a documentary about the conflict of cultural control during a time of expressive restriction’

Listen to ‘Gaps in the Border Fence’ –

The single launch featuring both bands will take place at the Brudenell Social Club on May 26th, alongside some soon to be announced special guests. This free entry show has been made possible thanks to the kind support of Leeds Inspired.

Expect to hear the ZoZo track very soon.

CPWM is inviting submissions from artists in the Leeds City Region that think they’re at the right stage of their career to benefit from a release with the singles club to submit a track and tell us what they’re about – see the Submissions page on www.cpwm.co
