Have a listen #1 /punkjazzy/

in #music6 years ago

As a musician, i am spending a lot of time discovering fresh music. Pop music, EDM scene is booming with huge sounds, often highly compressed, so i thought it would be nice to begin with some live music bands, who brings something fresh to our ears.

For my first selection, i chose to dive into UK jazz scene. 12 years ago i found really interesting punk Jazz band Acoustic Ladyland. For me, as a musician it was really inspiring, how they blended jazz and punk music together. A lot of music comes and goes nowadays, but this band sounds fresh even after 14 years, since they have released their first album "Camoulflage" (Babel, 2004). 

Have a listen of their song "Sport mode", performed live. 

In 2011 the band changed its name to Silver Birch. In 2012 leader of the band, saxophonist Pete Wareham founded a band called Melt Yourself Down. In 2013 they were signed with The Leaf Label and released debut album. 

Have a listen of "Fix My Life"

also enjoy "We Are Enough"

UK Jazz scene is full of interesting and fresh sounding stuff. I recommend to dive into The Leaf Label releases. Couple more bands worth to mention:

Sons of Kemet

The Comet Is Coming

Polar Bear


I hope you enjoyed this music as i did. If you have any questions, feel free to ask in comments, and i will continue to share music with you, that i found interesting. If you found interesting band, similar to these punk jazz masters, please, share with me.

Cheers :)
