Jim Noir

Jim Noir

Jim’s All Right

Psych-pop prince Jim Noir is preparing to blast off with his first new material since his acclaimed Tower Of Love album, a slinky little EP by the name of All Right.

The strictly limited edition 7” features four brand new tracks – All Right, Standing On A Corner, Find Mind Grind and Don't Turn The Music Down – and is out at the start of November.

The songs are all cut from Jim’s usual pop cloth, though there’s a distinctly leftfield edge to them, suggesting that his new direction is more My Patch than it is A Quiet Man.

The title track has also had a quaint little promo made for it, which tells a tale of puppets being in love with kidnapped robots – which would seem odd to other artists, but Jim has already had one-eyed fellas and giant letters in his videos before.

Anyone wandering along to the Super Furry Animals’ autumn tour will be able to sample the songs live, as Jim’s doing the support, though if you want to catch them in a more intimate setting, he’s also headlining at The Globe in Glossop on Friday.

And if you’re really on the ball, you’ll be able to catch him making an unscheduled appearance at a certain Embrace frontman’s night in a well-known Manchester club this Thursday, though don't tell anyone we told you so as it's supposed to be a secret!

Jim Noir plays The Globe in Glossop on Friday 12 October. Tickets are £4. The All Right EP is out on Monday 5 November.
