Night Tapes share debut album reveal, "storm"

"Convenience comes with a cost and annoyance is the price we sometimes pay for connection. Going to see your friend when you’re feeling tired. calling your family when you’re feeling sad, going to the video shoot even if there’s a storm predicted. Taking yourself out anyhow. Or even showing up to the uncomfortable feelings within. The ability to confide in yourself at the right time. Sometimes the things we need to do when a storm is coming are counterintuitive.

If there is a tidal wave coming and you’re on a boat on the sea, you need to go into the wave to get on top of it before it breaks. But I feel like most of us would try to ignore the wave for as long as possible, before doing the really scary counterintuitive thing. Our brains are designed to keep us safe, even if that means captivity of some sorts," Night Tapes say of the new release.

The band have also announced plans for a UK tour, including a headline show at London's Village Underground, alongside dates in Bristol, Leeds, Manchester, Amsterdam, Berlin, Paris, and more.
