TAPE TOY ○ November

Ahead of next week's new EP 'TTYS' (Talk To You Soon),
Amsterdam grunge poppers TAPE TOY
release single & video 'November'.

TAPE TOY about the video: "This video was made in collaboration with Pro Wrestling Holland. PWH is a highly motivated wrestling team with members from all over the country. Just as Julia. Julia had some trouble finding herself, but found her strength and confidence through wrestling.

As she told us: "Wrestling is not just a sport, it’s a way of living." The strong female lead Julia portrays on stage inspired us to capture it on film. Julia’s energy and the energy of the PWH team is one beyond comparison. Thank you PWH for welcoming us so warmly and letting us into your world."

On the 📌 14th of April TAPE TOY release their new EP ‘TTYS’ (Talk To You Soon). TTYS will be presented with a special release show on the 15th of April hosted in Skatepark Noord (Amsterdam) with an afternoon and night program. In the afternoon there will be a ‘best trick’ skate contest with prizes to win. After this a stage will be build in the skatepark and the support act FFOOSS will warm up the audience for TAPE TOY to release their brand new EP. CHRISSIE will complete the night with some serious bangers.

Their debut album (2022) had a bit more of a serious undertone but their new EP makes room for lighter themes and lots of energy. The EP counts 5 tracks and is a clear and unambiguous rendition of what TAPE TOY was like when they first started. Four people in one room, press record and go. The songs all have their own power, despite the fact that "Birthday" was completely rewritten in the studio. Each and everyone of the tracks gives you the urge to push the pedal to the metal.

Besides their EP release on the  15th of April TAPE TOY will play the following upcoming festivals:

27.04.2023 | Orange Glow Festival | Baflo
28.04.2023 | Neushoorn | Leeuwarden
05.05.2023 | Bevrijdingsfestival | Wageningen
10.06.2023 | Anywave Festival | Brogum
24.06.2023 | Katteker Festival | Friesoythe (D)
More shows to be announced.
