The Girls EP is the follow up to JP Maurice’s 2013 full-length album The Arborist, which marked his official debut as a solo artist after getting caught in major label red tape with his previous band that went simply by Maurice. The EP features a number of collaborators including producers Russell Broom and Ted Gowans, and it continues where The Arborist left off taking the listener straight back into sexy pop-noir territory.
“Girls is the first peek into a creative process lasting 2 years and is the precursor to its follow up, a full-length album entitled Boys, which will be out later this year. Recording for the EP started in 2014 in Toronto and culminated at my new studio Blue Light in Vancouver. The EP is highlighted with collaboration where every song is credited to different songwriters and production teams while still displaying a cohesive sound overall.”
