Both herald the release of her highly anticipated debut album, \u2018We Are The Plague\u2019, which is due in the spring.<\/p>\n<p>Released on 29 November via AWAL as a digital-only release, \u2018Thylacine\u2019 finds Suzie Stapleton in compelling form. Tying in with the apocalyptic themes that inform \u2018We Are The Plague\u2019, the new single is suffused with a sense of drama and an ethereal intensity that marks her down as a very special talent. This is music that seduces, compels and haunts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I started writing for this album, I felt a sense of responsibility to address what was going on in the world. We\u2019re bombarded constantly by horrific news, stuck on a broken systemic hamster wheel. I felt stupid writing about my insignificant woes whilst the world burned around me,\u201d explains Stapleton.<\/p>\n<p>Joining Suzie Stapleton\u2019s live band are bassist Gavin Jay from Jim Jones &amp; The Righteous Mind and Yann Tierson drummer Dave Collingwood. The Stranglers\u2019 drummer Jim Macauley brings his talents to the studio.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI approach the art of recording differently to performing songs live,\u201d continues Stapleton. \u201cThere\u2019s energy during live performances that can turn songs into a different beast. I expect that these new songs will evolve and begin to draw breath during these dates.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Produced by Suzie Stapleton, \u2018Thylacine\u2019 and \u2018We Are The Plague\u2019 were recorded at OX4 Studios in Oxfordshire and Stapleton\u2019s home studio and were mixed by award-winning engineer Dan Cox, whose previous credits include Thurston Moore\u2019s \u2018The Best Day\u2019.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/71026749_10156601732826149_8539052230408404992_o.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9770 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/71026749_10156601732826149_8539052230408404992_o.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"644\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/71026749_10156601732826149_8539052230408404992_o.jpg 644w, https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/71026749_10156601732826149_8539052230408404992_o-201x300.jpg 201w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 644px) 100vw, 644px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Suzie Stapleton plays:<\/p>\n<p>DECEMBER<\/p>\n<p>07 \u2013 Paper Dress Vintage, London<\/p>\n<p>JANUARY<\/p>\n<p>04 \u2013 The Carlisle, Hastings<br \/>\n24 \u2013 The Brunswick, Brighton<br \/>\n25 \u2013 Rough Trade, Bristol<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.suziestapleton.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Website<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/suzie.stapleton\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SuzieStapleton\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/suziestapleton\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Acclaimed chronicler of the dark Suzie Stapleton has announced the release of her new single, \u2018Thylacine\u2019, and a five-date UK tour.
