With a new album in the works (due out at the end of the year), Jim Murple Memorial have prepared the appetisers with a new EP, "Manapany", just released.
Invited to play the Manapany Surf Festival stage last year in La Réunion, the band pay tribute to the island and its surfers with this four-track EP, which will precede the new opus. It features a cover of Petite fleur, a signature song of Réunionese culture written by Georges Fourcade in 1930.
Listen to it on Deezer.
