Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly. - going back on tour

The expanded digital-only release of Young Adult from Xtra Mile Recordings will feature unheard new material in the form of new tracks Try and Quite Right, plus exclusive remixes of the album’s most standout moments, as re-worked by Get Cape. - AKA Sam Duckworth - himself.

It will be available from Friday.

In addition, the companion disc will collect live highlights from some of Get Cape’s most memorable shows this year, with tracks cherry-picked from his appearances at Frank Turner’s Lost Evenings III, plus his emotional hometown appearance at Southend’s SS2 venue.

Speaking about the new release, Get Cape. said: “It’s been over a year since Young Adult was recorded and a good year it has been. The band has grown in size and in spirit, there have been mixtapes, new songs and some really fun shows.

"I wanted to convey some of the joy and energy of the live shows from 2018 and what better way than to release some of the live shows we recorded? The Reading/Leeds Yung Adult mixtape was fun to make and included some reworkings of the tracks from the album, as well as the debut of Try. Quite Right was recorded just before the tour in May and feels like it’s of the same era as the songs of Young Adult, but also with one foot in the new.”

Fans will be able to hear all the new material when Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly. performs at The O2 Academy 3 on October 14, the show having been moved from the original venue of Castle & Falcon in Birmingham the day before due to popularity.

Tickets, priced at £14.40, are available here.
