Everything But The Girl have today unveiled their new At Maida Vale EP
Everything But The Girl have today revealed details of their new At Maida Vale EP, which is out now digitally.
The EP is made up of four tracks recorded in April at the BBC’s famous Maida Vale Studios - "Run A Red Light", "Single" and "When You Mess Up", were first broadcast on Gideon Coe’s BBC 6 Music show, whilst "Nothing Left To Lose" first heard on Jo Whiley’s BBC Radio 2 show.
All the recordings are versions of tracks on the band’s current album, Fuse, except "Single" which first appeared on their platinum 1996 album, Walking Wounded. The session was the only live performance that the band did around the release of their new album.
Speaking about their new EP, Tracey Thorn says: "It was exciting returning to such a famous studio to record these tracks. It was almost 40 years since our first John Peel Session there. The idea was to start by approaching all four as live piano and vocal takes."
""Nothing Left To Lose" was then left stripped back as a complete contrast to the original, while for the others we added a few one-take overdubs of synth, guitar, drums and backing vocals to capture both the spontaneity of a session but a flavour of the original album arrangements," adds Ben Watt.
At Maida Vale is out now.
