New EP ‘Town Centre’ out now on Speedy Wunderground
Available on vinyl 15th November
The hotly tipped post-punk, disco-funk phenomenon Squid announce they will be headlining their biggest show to date, on the 2nd April at London’s SCALA. Tickets on sale now. Squid have also confirmed their October UK tour has now SOLD OUT.
Squid have built their name on the back of a run of fine singles and their incendiary live shows which displays an energy and conviction that is positively transcendent in its chaos and fever. New EP ‘Town Centre’ out now on Dan Carey’s Speedy Wunderground label is the most complete body of work they’ve created yet and is not only an enthralling listen, but also serves as a compelling blueprint as to what they can achieve.
‘Town Centre’ is a perfect distillation of everything they have done so far, making good on the angular funk of ‘The Dial,’ the disco-punk of ‘Houseplants’ the ambitious songwriting of ‘Terrestrial Changeover Blues’ and through to their more ambient-leaning early work.
Formed in Brighton, Squid is the brainchild of Ollie Judge (Drums & Lead Vocals), Louis Borlase (Guitars & Vocals), Arthur Leadbetter (Keyboards and cello), Laurie Nankivell (Bass & Brass) and Anton Pearson (Guitars & Vocals).
