Formed in the youth clubs of London, Mercury Prize and BRIT Award-winners Femi Koleoso, TJ Koleoso, Joe Armon-Jones, James Mollison and Ife Ogunjobi have now spent over a decade making jazz joyful, urgent and undeniable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn \"Here Because Of Hope\", they push that vision further than ever, asking a simple but profound question: why does so much Black music born out of pain sound so joyful? Their answer is hope: the belief, carried across generations and oceans, that something better is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnchored by collaborations with Pa Salieu, Lila Iké, Leona Lewis and reaching across the full breadth of the global African diaspora (including America, where those same African and Caribbean roots gave birth to jazz itself) \"Here Because Of Hope\" is a record of remarkable warmth, ambition and humanity, and the sound of Britain's most vital band at the peak of their powers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout this product: \u003c\/strong\u003ethis release is available on CD and 2LP formats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2LP is the Indie Stores Exclusive pressing on white vinyl, housed in a gatefold sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tangled Parrot","offers":[{"title":"CD \/ Mint \/ Mint","offer_id":51070259790071,"sku":"PTSN3069-2","price":12.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"2x White Vinyl LP \/ Mint \/ Mint","offer_id":51070259822839,"sku":"PTSN3069-5","price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0018\/7881\/8916\/files\/Ezra-HBOH_3000x_d643d7b4-63d3-4e26-8dfa-ac6e8512c8b7.webp?v=1787759554","url":"https:\/\/tangledparrot.com\/products\/ptsn3069-2","provider":"Tangled Parrot","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
