‘Zelda Maria’, one of the cuts from People Get Ready<\/a>‘s brilliant eponymous debut album, is getting its own EP. Other than the title track, the EP features a demo of album track ‘Orange Grove’, an instrumental B-side, and a remix by Soft Encounters aka Luke Fasano.
\nHere’s what founding member Steven Reker said of ‘Zelda Maria’:<\/p>\n

\n

“Zelda Maria came together right before we recorded it. I had recently finished watching Michaelangelo Antonioni’s film The Passenger for the 2nd or 3rd time. There is this scene in the end that played over and over in my head – Jack asking Maria “What can you see now?” I lifted the dialogue and fit it into a melody that popped up from the keyboard parts I was fiddling with, and a few days later we were tracking the song with Jherek Bischoff. It became the most collaborative song on the record — Luke Fasano had input on how and when the keyboards shifted – Jen Goma wrote the little guitar lick – James Rickman, Jherek and I worked on the funky bass line – it was real fun! Zelda Maria sounds best when you play it super loud – like most things.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Coinciding with the EP release, People Get Ready have premiered a video to accompany the track. Watch it below.<\/p>\n
