Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly to vanish after one last show
By Aly Barchi | Published on Thursday 19 June 2014
Get Cape. Fold Cape. Place Cape In Cabinet For Safe-keeping. Indeed, yes, this is the news that Sam Duckworth is parking his Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly alias after ten years. And one final show. Which, whilst sad, at least means an end to this series of increasingly desperate CMU headlines.
Anyway, I digress. Here’s the fact sheet on that special live finale. It takes place at The Forum in London on 12 Sep, and will feature a greatest hits set by Get Cape and preliminary appearances by Shy FX, Jehst, The Xcerts, Sean McGowan, Dave House and Ritual Beating System DJs. Tickets are priced at £20, and are available right this minute via this Get Cape-given link.
Reminiscing on his time as GCWCF, Duckworth, says this: “The last decade as Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly has been amazing. I’ve had the pleasure of making music with some incredible people and sharing the journey with many good folk. There have been challenges, triumphs and parasites”.
He went on: “I have decided that it is time to transition into life as Sam Duckworth. It’s easier to explain to strangers and it’s starting to feel more comfortable. So… I figured it best that we throw one giant going away party for Get Cape. Wear Cape Fly. We’ll have some of the best live musicians on the planet joining us. It’s very eclectic but all are on the top of their game, so it should feel a bit like a mini festival and a chance to enjoy music of different styles”.
