While we wait for the rest of the world to catch up with what’s happening in Jape-land, it’s inevitable that his most distinctive song “Floating” will be re-released in the UK on V2 records on November 19th appearing on the EP Jape is Grape which If I am correct includes “Floating”, “Christopher and Anthony” and “Young Man”.
This video, directed by M&E and D.A.D.D.Y. sees Richie get pelted with all manner of fruit in slow motion until he transforms into a Peter Gabriel “Sledgehammer” type superfood.
Great Cover Art too.
classy stuff. My mate last night was saying there should be an irish version of celebrity death match with irish indie bands fighting in a pit and that it could be called Fight Like Jape…I’ll get me coat
Great video! I saw Jape the other day at Nottingham and thought it was awesome.
I hope you don’t mind but I featured Nialler9 and Jape on my Anablogue podcast. Anablogue is a show all about music blogging and tries to highlight a few select cuts from each week. It used to broadcast on student radio but has since gone to podcast mode.
