The Last Dinner Party are pleased to announce the 11th October arrival of Prelude To Ecstasy: Acoustics and Covers - a deluxe edition of their Mercury Prize-shortlisted debut which includes reimagined versions of the band’s own songs alongside unique covers of their favourite tracks from other artists.
The Last Dinner Party’s cover of Sparks’ 1974 single ‘This Town Ain’t Big Enough For Both Of Us’ arrives alongside a tour montage video; made with footage shot over the band’s recent trips to Japan, The United States and their recent performance at Reading Festival.

To sum up the impact The Last Dinner Party have had, or simply to try and summarise the highlights of their last twelve months would inevitably be doing the band an injustice. With sell out tours across the globe, chart-bothering singles, a fastest-selling number one album by a debuting band for years, a Rising Star BRIT Award, BBC Sound of 2024 winners, reams of acclaim and now an inclusion on the Mercury Prize - Albums of the Year shortlist: you’d be hard pushed to liken it to any new artist introducing themselves within the last decade, perhaps further beyond. The wildest of rides.
But amongst all the deafening noise stand five smart young musicians trying to ignore what they cannot control and instead leave a permanent impression out on the stages they’d always dreamed of performing on. A mesmerising, captivating live act, The Last Dinner Party started this journey honing their craft on the basement stages of London’s grassroots venues and have been telling their story to bigger capacity rooms across the UK, Europe and the US ever since.
Having commenced the summer with a spree of stellar festival appearances including Radio 1 Big Weekend, Primavera Sound, TRNSMT and a scene-stealing return to Glastonbury, The Last Dinner Party have now wrapped their debut run of shows in bassist Georgia’s home country of Australia and an appearance at Japan’s Fuji Rock Festival, before the band complete a collection of sold out dates on both sides of the Atlantic: culminating in 3 nights at London’s Eventim Apollo.
Britain’s “most likely to” have emphatically become Britain’s most in-demand, and Britain’s most exciting.
