PAUL DRAPER SMALLEST INSTORE PERFORMANCE
Many of you will be aware that Paul Draper (ex Mansun) will have an Instore appearence at VOD Music,Mold,Flintshire North Wales on Tuesday 1st February (6pm) to sign copies of his new album ,we can also now announce with great excitement that he will be PLAYING LIVE in-store ,this unique event we believe could possibly be the smallest instore performance ever in the UK (given that VOD Music is officially the UKs smallest independent Record Shop). The performance is to celebrate the release of 'Cult Leader Tactics' which has just been released on Kscope. So, how will this work? We are asking fans to come and support this unique experience at our shop, Paul will play instore with the aim of rotating our one in one out of the shop as he plays to enable as many as possible to have a chance to be the ONE in the shop at any one time during the set. Everyone else will watch from outside and after the performance Paul will finish with a signing session and chat with his fans. There are no tickets required and the event is absolutely FREE to all and will adhere to Welsh Goverrnment guidlines.It will be also be his only instore appearance in Wales. The album Cult Leader Tactics is his first solo album since 2017's much-lauded Spooky Action.It offers a satirical analysis of the self-help manual genre. A guide on how you can get to the top of your chosen profession, or ahead in life and in affairs of the heart, by acting in a Machiavellian manner, employing dirty tricks or Cult Leader Tactics to achieve your life goals. After experiencing these types of human behaviours and themes, the album arrives at the conclusion that the only true answer in life is love.Paul plays most of the instruments on the album, including lead vocals, guitar and various Moogs and synthesisers. An album produced with long-time collaborator and acclaimed producer Paul 'P-Dub' Walton (Massive Attack, The Cure, Bjork) at Loft Studios, it also includes guest appearances from Porcupine Tree's Steven Wilson and Gam of the band Sweat as well as featuring a 288-person C.L.T. Lockdown Choir.The Album offers a selection of Paul's most focused and ambitious work so far, a brilliantly dark commentary on an industry he is all too aware of.
