Jupe Jupe 'Headlong To Ground' Single Out 18th July

New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ The Playground) After hunkering down for nearly a year to write and record numerous tracks, the band turned to Martin Feveyear of Jupiter Studios who has worked with a multitude of acts including REM, Modest Mouse, Robert Fripp, and Cornershop to help engineer and produce the single and its B-side.

Jupe Jupe is composed of My Young on vocals and synthesizer, Bryan Manzo and Patrick Partington on guitar, and drummer Jarrod Arbini—veterans of the Seattle and Austin music scenes. Their first CD, "Invaders," released in 2010, spent over a month in the CMJ top 200, received rave reviews internationally and resulted in licensing offers including Hugo Boss, The Gap and "Keeping Up with the Kardashians,"

"It's clear that there's a whole array of pop influences from across the decades thrown into Jupe Jupe's melting pot" Glasswerks

"Jupe Jupe bring together the matter-of-factness of Pulp with the gritty but somehow twinkling soundscape found in the songs of Modest Mouse" Alt Sounds

"... weird and wonderful...Well worth searching out." - My Old Kentucky Blog
"Jupe Jupe deliver their pop punch with a heavy dose of electro-casual finesse...Bits of glam are lipsticked on to some of the songs, giving them a nice edge, and the guitar hits with perfect shots of electricity."

- Big Takeover
"... an album that will surely prove to be one of the finest local records you will hear in 2010."
