Mamilah are a nu-soul 7 piece, combining elements of neo-soul and old-school soul with the flavours of the recent UK Jazz Resurgence. Proudly formed in Leeds, UK, the band have been getting their hands dirty on the local circuit since 2017.

Having shared the stage with luminaries such as KOKOROKO, Kool and the Gang, Yazmin Lacey, Galaxians and Craig Charles, Mamilah’s live performance continues to thrive nationally. Summer 2019 saw performances at Boomtown, El Dorado and Virgo Festival, as well as at pioneering grassroots venues such as The Wardrobe, The Hootannany and Band on The Wall.

Mamilah’s third EP Old Parade, is set for release in Spring 2022 and follows in the previous success of Talk Less (2020) and Moonlight Walking (2018). 

Previous releases have gained support from Jazz FM, BBC Introducing West Yorkshire, Global Soul and Sounds Like This Radio as well as a feature on Bandcamp’s “Best Soul of August 2018” article. They have been tipped as ‘ones to watch’ by Love Supreme Festival and were highlighted as one of the pioneering artists in Leeds underground Jazz Scene by Clash Magazine.
