Our Take

Leeds-based trio Mammal Hands have reemerged from the shadows with their latest offering, "Shadow Work." This album is a sonic journey through jazz-infused rhythms and exuberant energy that will have you tapping your feet and nodding your head in no time.

From the minute the opening track hits your ears, you're transported to a world where time slows down and every note is savored like a fine wine. The intricate interplay between saxophone, piano, and drums is nothing short of mesmerizing, creating a rich tapestry of sound that is both complex and accessible.

The standout track, "Spiral Stair," showcases the band's ability to seamlessly blend electronic elements with organic instrumentation, resulting in a dynamic and captivating listening experience. Each member of Mammal Hands brings their own unique flair to the table, contributing to a cohesive and well-rounded sound that is all their own.

"Shadow Work" is a testament to Mammal Hands' ability to push boundaries and defy expectations in the world of contemporary jazz. So go ahead, take a listen and let yourself be transported to a place where the music speaks for itself.
