Fresh Chops from Ultimate Painting today, some newbies packing floaty dream-pop to put a spring in your step this summer.

The new duo are comprised of Jack Cooper (MAZES frontman) and James Hoare (Veronica Falls) and their self titled debut single ‘Ultimate Painting’ is being released on Trouble In Mind Records on 18th August.

“James and I started talking about making music whilst we were on tour with our other bands” explains Cooper of the new project “We’d known each other to say hello to for about 4 years and saw each other other regularly at shows in London.
