'You Were There' is a first taste of her forthcoming EP, Negative Prophet, which is set for release later this year. The EP features Stapleton's first recordings since hooking up with JIM JONES REVUE and THE RIGHTEOUS MIND bassist Gavin Jay and GALLON DRUNK drummer Ian White. It was produced by Stapleton with engineer Drew Smith (PJ Harvey, Ed Harcourt).
The haunting video clip is also handiwork of Jay.

Born in Sydney but based in London since 2015, Stapleton has shared stages with the likes of MARK LANEGAN, MICK HARVEY and BOSS HOG, and held an audience spellbound at last year's CAMDEN ROCKS.
Stapleton features on LYDIA LUNCH and CYPRESS GROVE’s covers album Under The Covers, set for release in June through Rustblade Records. A continuation of Stapleton’s collaborations with Grove on the third Jeffrey Lee Pierce Sessions Project album Axels & Sockets, she's also lined up to appear on a fourth volume, currently in production.
She returns to Camden Rocks this year on 3 June.
