Brooklynite Elizabeth Harper’s first musical offerings appeared in the form of personal singer/songwriter fareher airy vocals paired only with quiet strums of acoustic guitar. But having a long-held desire to make electronic music, Harper recruited producers Mark Richardson and Scott Rosenthal to assist in achieving her desired sound, and electro-pop outfit Class Actress was born. The trio wasted no time in assembling their Journal of Ardency EP, which Grizzly Bear’s Chris Taylor released on his Terrible Records imprint in early 2010. The five songs circulated widely, garnering acclaim and comparisons to Human League, Depeche Mode, and early Madonna at each music journal stop.

Now settled in with the folks at Carpark, Harper and co. put forth their debut long-player, Rapprocher. The album sees her playing a similar part to Journal’s playful lovelorn diva, but it pushes the EP’s proto-electro revisionism into new directions. Tracks like "Love Me Like You Used To" and "Hanging On" swaddle the record’s heavy disco beats in diaphanous sheets of delay, and the bouncing bass of "Weekend" make it a prime candidate for a feel-good summer hit.

Harper remains the force that binds the songs into a cohesive statement, her winking coo darting about in the deep drums and lofty arpeggios, and her passion – backed mostly with electronics– summons thoughts of Yaz’s Alison Moyet. In concurrence with the title ("rapprocher"is French for "bring closer"), the candid, sincere lyrics meld with the atmosphere, enveloping the listener into Class Actress’s world of 21st century romanticism.

New song 'When You're Wrong' from the upcoming album caer, out April 27th. #SCFirst


Lyrics:

Want you close to me 
More than 6 degrees 
Support the weight of me 
Can't live without that  

We met at 17 
You were such a drama queen 
White sands and tangerines 
Can't live without that 

But you offer me cold hands
Cause I'm not your man 
And you've always been here 
Watching me make plans 
With these one night stands 
And you've always been clear 


You feel it
concede it 
Can't live it like that 
You feel it
conceded
can't live it like that (can't live it like that)

We are black as velveteen 
Focused on our energy 
Like the sound of tambourines 
We can't live without that 

Now your drifting other scenes 
I been on my Steve McQueen 
Driving, crashing everything 
I can't live it like that 

But you offer me cold hands
Cause I'm not your man 
And you've always been here 
Watching me making plans 
With these one night stands 
And you've always been clear 


You feel it
concede it 
Can't live it like that 
You feel it
conceded
can't live it like that (can't live it like that)


I Want you close to me 
More than 6 degrees 
Support the weight of me 
Can't live without that  

We met at 17 
You were such a drama queen 
White sands and tangerines 
I can't live without that (can't leave it like that)

when you're wrong you feel it
concede it 
can't live it like that 
you're wrong you feel it
conceded
can't live it like that (can't live it like that)
when you're wrong you feel it
concede it 
can't live it like that 
you're wrong you feel it
conceded
can't live it like that (can't live it like that)

Born from Oxford’s famously close-knit and innovative artistic community, Chad Valley’s musical ambition has always stretched far beyond the context of its creation. Early EPs Chad Valley and Equatorial Ultravox were produced in the now-26-year old Hugo Manuel’s bedroom, but conveyed the exotic flair fit for the early hours at a paradisiacal island nightspot, with a whopping soundsystem-appropriate dynamic to boot. The thoroughly modern pop producer is now about to release his debut solo album as Chad Valley, and it’s considerably more consummate than most first outings. Knock-out production, a unique set of influences, unbelievable guest singers: Young Hunger is about having the fire and strength to realise your intentions.
