Project Details
Hartlepool five piece MARKETPLACE have announced their debut EP, “MARKETPLACE HAVE MADE AN EP!” which is set for release on Friday 4th October 2024.
The EP’s lead track ‘Fruit’ – supported by BBC Radio 1’s Jess Iszatt, displayed a marked progression for the Teesside newcomers, blending indie pop sensibilities with contrasting vocals for a bolder sound than previously explored. Produced by Chad Rodgers (Benjamin Francis Leftwich, Cape Cub), the release saw the band soar to new heights, achieving 20,000 streams in its first month as well as support from the likes of BBC Introducing and NARC Magazine.
Songwriter and guitarist Jack Purcell explains ,“The EP is a collection of what we think are our best songs up until this point. We really tried to capture the fun energy of our gigs into the tracks and encapsulate who we are as a band at the moment”.
Drawing influences from a wide range of artists including Alvvays, Declan McKenna, Pulp and Talking Heads, the band, consisting of Evie Rhodes (vocals/guitar), Joel O’Beirne (vocals/bass), Jack Purcell (guitar), Matthew Short (synth/vocals) and Ross Dixon (drums), bring their own individual tastes to the table to create the signature MARKETPLACE sound.
With widespread backing already from industry tastemakers alongside support slots with Alfie Templeman, Swim Deep and Abbie Ozard as well as selling out gigs in Manchester, Leeds and their hometown of Hartlepool, MARKETPLACE are ready to make their mark with the release of ‘MARKETPLACE HAVE MADE AN EP!’ this October.
