Jungle

Jungle was founded by Josh Lloyd-Watson and Tom McFarland, who met at age 10. The enigmatic electronic duo’s first, self-titled album from 2014 was nominated for a Mercury Prize; heading into a second decade of performing, Jungle is touring behind their new album, Volcano, released in August, featuring collaborations with Erick the Architect, Bas, Roots Manuva, Channel Tres and JNR Williams.

$39.50.

media release: British songwriting and production duo Jungle will perform at The Sylvee on September 18. 

The tour celebrates Jungle’s new album Volcano, out this Friday via Caiola Records / AWAL, featuring collaborations with Erick The Architect, Bas, Roots Manuva, Channel Tres, JNR Williams and more. Volcano features previously released singles “Candle Flame” with Erick the Architect, “Dominoes,” “I’ve Been In Love” featuring Channel Tres and “Back on 74.”

Jungle was founded by J&T, who met at the age of 10 in West London’s Shepherd’s Bush. They began making music together at the beginning of 2013, choosing to put the aesthetic emphasis on the music’s surrounding artwork/videos rather than on their own identities.

Jungle’s acclaimed 2014 self-titled debut album was a Mercury Prize nominee and is now Gold-certified while their lauded 2018 follow-up, For Ever, reached #10 on the UK Albums Chart. In addition, their 2021 album, Loving In Stereo, achieved their highest domestic chart position to date, debuting at #1 on Billboard’s Current Electronic Albums chart. Their three records have since amassed over a million equivalent album sales and a billion streams worldwide. They’ve performed on five continents, headlining venues both stateside and abroad while performing at major music festivals such as Glastonbury, Coachella, Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza. Last year, the duo embarked on a select run of European dates supporting Billie Eilish on her “Happier Than Ever” tour.
