In a press release announcing the band's summer sessions, Jarvis Cocker says, “You deserve more & we have more. In fact, we have More – (but that’s a whole other story… you’ll have to wait a little more time to hear that one). In the meantime: see you this Summer!”
Jarvis Cocker's band played two shows in Japan last month, and also have summer festival appearances lined up in the UK (Tramlines, in Sheffield, on July 25) and Spain (Bilbao BBK 2025, July 10-12).
Last year the reactivated Britpop legends announced that they have signed a record deal with Rough Trade Records.
“Rough Trade have managed Pulp for over 30 years so it feels great to be finally on the label” they stated. “We did it!”
