Crooks Inc.

UK jazz

Crooks Inc. stand at the forefront of London’s vibrant jazz scene, emerging as a six-piece ensemble whose genre-defying sound has quickly marked them as innovators in UK jazz. Rooted in South London’s underground, this collective intricately blends the expressive energy of modern jazz with the smooth textures of neo-soul and the irresistible grooves of ’90s R&B. With bass, drums, guitar, keys, saxophone, and vocals forming their dynamic line-up, Crooks Inc. reference artists like Yussef Dayes, Hiatus Kaiyote, and Erykah Badu, yet craft a distinct presence that’s uniquely their own.

Demonstrating their prowess on stage, Crooks Inc. have headlined JAN JAZZ FEST at the iconic 100 Club on Oxford Street in London, confirming their rising reputation within the live music circuit. Their performances are characterised by spontaneous improvisation, fluid ensemble interplay, and a commitment to redefining what UK jazz can be in the contemporary landscape.
