Fresh sounds: Mammoth - Ourglass

Jazz quartet Mammoth presents their new single Ourglass, lifted from their debut EP planned for September 2021. The tune follows their debut single Erlanger.

A band made of sought-after touring and session musicians including drummer Harry Pope (Alfa Mist, Neue Graffik Ensemble) and sax player Tim Ower (Gary Barlow, Jess Glynne, Stormzy), plus Arthur Ohara on bass, and George Risk on guitar. Mammoth is a jazz electronic project that draws inspiration from across genres, reflecting each member’s eclectic tastes and experiences. This diversity is what led to the group’s initial formation; feeling unable to express these many different arts of our musical personality in other projects. Harry Pope explains this project was born to try and make a cohesive snapshot of our multi-faceted tastes and playing styles, and come away with something that doesn’t sound confused.

Listen to Mammoth new single Ourglass from their forthcoming debut EP:

Everything about the group reflects these wide-ranging inspirations, including the members themselves. Pope comments I think our identity is within how mismatched the different members of the group are. The result is modern-sounding music from a group of exquisitely talented, forward-thinking musicians who are not bound by any labels but thrive on the simple idea of creating and playing together
