PIPAS : CD A Cat Escaped

Brilliant album from London-based international pop duo Pipas features ten new tracks that will undoubtedly help strengthen the band's genre-melding reputation. Successfully combining harmonic indiepop with dance music, band members Mark Powell (ex-Bella Vista and Moonlings) and Spanish native Lupe Nunez-Fernandez team up with an ingeniously programmed drum machine to create infectious popsongs which manage to be both unpretentiously simple and naturally sophisticated. "A Cat Escaped" is a tantalizing treat of modern sounds and guitars that jangle in all the right places, with short, sweet songs and breezy vocals featuring plenty of ba-ba-ba's. The band has developed an avid international fanbase on the strength of previous releases "A Short Film About Sleeping" on Matinée and "Chunnel Autumnal" on Long Lost Cousin, plus a clutch of celebrated live sets in England, Scotland, Sweden and Spain. This highly anticipated new album will delight Pipas partisans and entice new fans. The band will be launching the album at three special American dates at the end of October.
