Hailing from Manchester in the UK, acoustic-electronica trio GoGo Penguin are pianist Chris Illingworth, bassist Nick Blacka and drummer Rob Turner. Drawing on a heady brew of influences from Brian Eno, John Cage, Massive Attack and Aphex Twin to Manchester’s grey rain-streaked urban streets, they create a brave new sound that is wholly their own.

Defined by skittering break-beats, powerful sub-bass, telepathic interplay and a penchant for anthemic melody they create an emotionally rich palate for the listener that has seen them hailed as the most exciting new band to emerge from the UK in years.

My new album 'Pillars' is out now! I can't wait for you to hear it. 

Multi-award winner Jack Garratt makes his very welcomed return with the announcement of third album ‘Pillars’. Marking his first full-length project in five years, ‘Pillars’ is vibrant, emotionally-charged and a celebration of love, community, and self-discovery.

The album’s journey begins with explosive first single ‘Catherine Wheel’. More than just a comeback single - the track is a statement of intent for Pillars and emerged from a period of self-doubt and creative rebirth. “I was fully ready to quit music,” Garratt admits. “But Catherine Wheel became my true north - it reignited my love for creating and set the tone for the entire album.”

Since winning the Brits’ Critics’ Choice Award and the BBC Sound Of poll in 2016, Jack Garratt has released two critically acclaimed, Top 10 albums, Phase (2016) and Love, Death & Dancing (2020). Known for electrifying live performances and a genre-defying sound, Jack continues to push boundaries with his deeply personal and sonically adventurous music, with ‘Pillars’ being no exception.
