28 May 2009 The Temper Trap – Sweet Disposition

UK dates Summer 2009

'Sweet Disposition is a beatific, calm-evoking four minutes of lingering, floating melodies… stunning', NME

The Temper Trap announce details of a brand new single from their forthcoming debut album. The track, Sweet Disposition is already picking up interest across the internet and at radio, and is fast becoming a live favourite at their increasingly packed out shows. The heavily tipped four piece have just put the finishing touches to their debut album Conditions with producer Jim Abbiss. The band has also been out in Europe playing at various festivals as well as supporting Glasvegas. The album is scheduled for release in August and the band continues their relentless tour schedule which now includes appearances at some of the major festivals throughout the summer as well as a very special show at London’s ICA. With NME saying ‘just watching them on stage it’s apparent this band are destined for major things’ and The Times declaring that ‘their turbulent, symphonic rock has something of the Arcade Fire about it’, it’s fair to say that some of these shows are likely to be a one time only chance to see the band in such intimate surroundings before they embark on a festival season that is sure to be among the highlights of this year.

Sweet Disposition is released by Infectious on 20 July 2009.

The Temper Trap is: Dougy (vocals). Lorenzo (guitar), Jonathon (bass) and Toby (drums)
