Sam Isaac Set To Release New EP and Tour UK
London acoustic artist Sam Isaac is set to release his new EP 'Sticker, Star and Tape' on September 22nd through Alcopop Records. The EP is Sam Isaac's third release and will be followed up by UK Tour in October.The Press Release states:
""Sticker, Star and Tape" is the third indie single from the fledging Sam Isaac and a more riotious-fist in air pop affiar than previous outings. Each and every Sam Isaac single has seen this independent artists fanbase swell, and the summer has once again seen Sam a fixture at almost every festival from V to Big Chill via Boring By The Sea and Latitude. "Sticker, Star and Tape" is a central anthem to the Sam Isaac world; a place where friends make artwork, do recording, direct music videos and carry clipboards. Perfect strangers sell his CDs, promote shows and join the ranks. Sam's part of the bargain is donning an acoustic guitar and making the music to lead the troops.
It's not just been bedroom DIY which has fuelled the Sam Isaac flames in 2007 he was chosen as one of four unsigned acts to play BBC Electric Proms. He played - with a string quartet - as support for Edwyn Collins' comeback gig. He has also been hand picked as support shows for Scouting For Girls, King Creosote, Ben's Brother and Kate Walsh. In March of this year, Radio 1 asked him to play their Introducing... night showcasing the best new talent for 2008, alongside bands like The Ting Tings and Dan le Sac vs Scroobius Pip. During the same month, he released his second single "Fire Fire" on singles label Another Music = Another Kitchen, which garnered him daytime playlist positions on both Xfm and 6Music, further plays from Jo Whiley, Zane Lowe, and Huw Stephens, an "In The Company Of" half hour interview on Colin Murray's show and an Xfm Music:Response session."
