It’s been 8 years since London’s Adult Jazz released their mini-LP Earrings Off!, which followed their debut full-length Gist Is, which dropped back in 2014. The band is now gearing up for the release of their new album So Sorry So Slow which is out April 26th on Spare Thought. One of the songs featured on the new record is their latest single ‘Suffer One’.

‘Suffer One ‘ is a quite minimal slice of experimentalism that is wide and spacious in production but still entrenched with a cinematic feel. There is an Arthur Russell vibe to the song that makes it one that is almost hard to place in any specific music category. However the overall track is engaging and thoughtful.

Regarding ‘Suffer One’, Adult Jazz mentioned:

“We recorded the cello and guitar together at Konk, with no-metronome, to get a loose shifting rhythm – then spent time adding splashes of other things in the studio. The final stage was Owen Pallett’s string arrangement, and viola + violin playing. We’ve been listening to Owen’s music since we were 15, and have always admired their songwriting so we were incredibly honoured they were up for it. The strings lent this final surge of energy that helped us feel it was done.”
