Our Overview.
It has been quite a few busy years for the hip hop/rap trio Jungle Brown since their debut album ‘Flight 314’ and now the groups highly anticipated second full-length LP from Jungle Brown, ‘Full Circle’, drops on Mr Bongo and features collaborations with Sampa The Great, Fliptrix (High Focus) and Terri Walker amongst other super-talents and sees the guys going from strength to strength.
Bridging the sounds of grime, boom-bap and soul, Jungle Brown are a collective consisting of Maear, Ric Flo and Tony Bones. Despite not having major label backing, Jungle Brown has spent the last few years carving a considerable name for themselves through steady grinding. They have appeared at Glastonbury and Boomtown and shared the stage with De La Soul, Big Daddy Kane and Ghostface Killah.
The trio have spent the last two years redefining soulful hip-hop - the sound is bigger, more thought-provoking, and it has matured with a rich soulful underpinning. They have also entered territories fans are yet to hear as they glide effortlessly over Tony Bones’ productions that introduce trap and house into their repertoire. The project is an eclectic array of their influences, twisted and blended together to create a ground-breaking release for UK music.
Jungle Brown’s debut album ‘Flight 314’ has achieved more than a million streams without any budget for marketing or promotion. They spent much of 2016 in Apple Music’s ‘Best of 2016 category, featuring on Spotify and SB.TV, were requested to curate an exclusive playlist for Tidal and attracted attention from New York with Beats 1’s very own, Ebro.
They’ve shared the stage with the likes of De La Soul, Ghostface Killah, Lowkey, Akala and Donaeo, played major festivals including Glastonbury, Boomtown and Lovebox as well as a huge number of clubs shows across the UK.
