The Schmoozenbergs - Mouse (2024) [Hi-Res]

Mouse is the third album in a career spanning over a decade for Bristol-based The Schmoozenbergs, and their first new release since 2019’s Awaken. Starting life as a duo in 2012, the band settled into their current four-piece line-up in 2017, when they also released their self-titled first album.

Awaken and now Mouse are confidently showcase their own material, a homage to the styles of music they love that is neither pastiche nor slavish recreation. Their take on traditional Balkan, Celtic, gypsy jazz, klezmer styles and flashes of jazz-funk, spills out as a bright, warm cinemascope of sound. Indeed, Mouse is a deliciously sensory album.
