After recently joining the Rude Records family, Newcastle’s Boy Jumps Ship have announced their new EP ‘Lovers and Fighters’ is due for release via Rude Records worldwide on June 2nd and available for pre-order here. The band have also unveiled the EP cover art, of a regular haunt of the bands whilst growing up in Newcastle, singer Si Todd commented:
“The picture really resonates with us because it’s a place where some of us used to go a lot when we were younger, so it holds lots of memories. We’re all honest, working-class lads from the North East and we really feel like this picture helps to emphasise the whole ethos behind the band”.
