Adult Jazz Announce Debut Album ‘Gist Is’, Stream ‘Spook’

Experimental Leeds band Adult Jazz are barely a single to the good, but the four-piece have just announced details of their debut album ‘Gist Is’.

Following on from the ‘Springful’/’Am Gone’ single, Spare Thought are putting out the record on 4th August. It was produced and mixed by Tom Howe at The Black Byre, Scotland.

The album’s led by a new, nine-minute long song titled ‘Spook’. Anyone needing evidence of the band’s ridiculous ambition and tight musicianship need only skim through this monster of a song, which circuits booming trumpets, sky-reaching synths and the daring depths of frontman Harry Burgess’ back-flipping vocals.
