Leeds four-piece Part-Time Model have announced their debut EP, Seen Not Seen, set for release on 9th April 2027 via LAB Records. To mark the announcement, the quartet have shared the project’s second single, “Big Fish,” alongside an accompanying music video.
Comprising Lucy Tessier (vocals), Rafael Mendes-Browne (bass), Charlie Wilberforce (guitar), and Ben Smith (drums), Part-Time Model blend grunge, jazz, and modern psychedelia, drawing sonic parallels to Nilüfer Yanya, Honeyglaze, and Radiohead. “Big Fish” follows their debut single “Cut Off Point,” which earned early radio support across BBC Radio 6 Music (Steve Lamacq, Emily Pilbeam) and Radio X (John Kennedy).
Addressing the anti-corporate sentiment behind the new single, the band shared:
‘Big Fish’ is about craving an escape from the toxic environments that often manifest in high-pressure, corporate 9-5s. For creatives, working an office job, especially one that you don’t enjoy, can be incredibly demoralising and frustrating. Every day is the same, repeated cycles of burn-out become normalised, and you rarely get the support you need, which this song seeks to challenge. It’s a call to action, to leave behind the things that no longer serve you because life is too short to work for people who make you miserable, and who crush your creativity, self-esteem and happiness.
Following sold-out headline dates across Leeds, Hull, York, and Sheffield, as well as shows alongside Welly and Lizzie Reid, Part-Time Model are set to support LIFE and Congratulations over the coming months.
“Big Fish” is available across all digital streaming platforms now. Seen Not Seen EP releases 9th April 2027 via LAB Records.
