The Savage Jazz are four housemates from sunny Guildford. Relentless gigging and recording over the last year has seen the band develop a unique sound, moulded by four musical individuals. The result is a mash-up of progressive ska and reggae with a sprinkling of rock and drum n bass. Live shows will always leave the audience sweaty and filled to the brim with savage goodness.
In July, The Savage Jazz released their 12 track album, Mixtape Voodoo . Having sold over 600 copies in the first two months, the band have seen awesome support across the UK from their ever-growing fanbase.Here are some things people have said so far:
“It's happy music with brain as well as heart -- though non-jazz lovers shouldn't be put off by their name: they owe more to Razorlight and Jack Johnson than Miles Davis. A real find.â€
- Dominic Welles, Editor, The Times (Knowledge Magazine) -
"We're almost scared for our lives before 'Savage Jazz' (song) rolls around, as it would be a funny thing to be killed by perfection hitting your ears...everybody should be listening to The Savage Jazz!"
- Han Quintrell, -
"An elevating blend of nu-reggae, soul ska rock and funky pop-a perfect soundtrack for the summer."
