About Me

------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------- About World Party.............Welcome to the Official World Party MySpace site...............----------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- First of all, I have just watched this documentary at this address....http://zeitgeistmovie.com/Would really like to hear anyone/everyone's views on this.... ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------- World Party has been hailed as a glorious mixture of musical styles from the Fab Four to the Fab Five (and maybe even Six), with Karl Wallinger's abiding love of melody face-up at all times. Which makes a change from it being face-down like it was last thursday. ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------- 2006 marked the return of World Party, with the whole World Party catalogue remastered. ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------- The 2006 album and DVD "Dumbing Up" ... stuffed full of additional never heard before songs, live footage and much more. ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------- From March to September World Party played live shows in the USA as a three piece and then as a seven piece. ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------- Oct 2007 The band are currently back in London working on the next collection of songs. ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------- The hope was to release the new cd as the band started their September 2007 tour of Australia and New Zealand with Steely Dan (as a five piece!). But hey this is World Party and the new songs won't see daylight til 2008.In the meantime, Seaview Records will also be releasing two compilation CDs of World Party archive material, covers, live versions and demos. There will also be brand new World Party stuff in 2008, I mean we would say there will be a new World Party cd, but who knows what it is we're meant to be selling you right now........downloaded mp3s, USB sticks or vinyl.......!!!???? We will, however, be back..............

------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------- We had a great time out on the road with the full band on the US tour in August and September 2006!

Had a great time at the Roxy in LA, at Park West in Chicago and at The Irving Plaza in NYC, it seemed like we had never been away. Thanks to the people who turned up for the shows......Working in the studio now and releasing the new work soon (early 08...).
