The ‘folk noir’ Sydneysiders Jep And Dep are to celebrate the release of new track ‘Tears In The Rain’ with a gig in their hometown.

Jep And Dep – known as Jessica Cassar and Darren Cross by their respective nans – are heading Newtown’s way to launch their new single, before immediately skedaddling off to Europe for an 18-date tour. The partnership has received some choice reviews from some quarters – up-and-coming Shakespearean folkster Courtney Barnett described them as “a duo that will melt your heart like a marshmellow at a campfire”.

Jep And Dep will be partying at Newtown Social Club on Saturday March 28. Visit the clubor the duo’s site for more info.
