Monocled Man, led by trumpet player Rory Simmons present a live preview of new music from their album scheduled for release in Autumn on Whirlwind Records. This new set of music features appearances from guest vocalists Ed Begley and Emilia Mårtensson, with material inspired by inhabitants of isolated islands around the globe. Sequenced analog synths, and beds of distorted guitars give way to spacey, cinematic drones. Featuring Troyka’s Chris Monatgue on guitar and Kairos 4tet’s Jon Scott on drums.
“Monocled Man are another fierce contender on the UK’s triving alt, electric jazz scene.”
