Nice Idea EP (RSD 23)

Kae Tempest kicks off 2023 with a 4 track EP release entitled ‘Nice Idea’, in support of Record Store Day.

Produced by Dan Carey, the EP tracks were written and recorded over a five-day period, during a brief gap in Kae’s extensive 2022 touring schedule. The title track, ‘Nice Idea’ is released today along with a video shot in their native South East London and made by their childhood friend Kwake Bass. Kae says of the track “This is a song about wanting to stay in bed all day with the person you’re in love with. Imagine you could just shut the whole world out and enjoy each other. Nice idea”

2023 looks set to be another big year for Kae Tempest, with the release of their new poetry collection “Divisible by Itself and One”, which will be published by Picador on April 27th plus a sold out Australian tour, which kicks off in February and includes an appearance at Sydney Opera House.

With four studio albums, a novel, their first work of non-fiction (‘On Connection’), three plays and five collections of poetry to their name, Kae Tempest has firmly established themselves as one of the most unique, thought-provoking and critically acclaimed voices of their generation.
