Good the perfect chill pill for a woozy summer afternoon, especially if you dig the music of artists like Ezra Collective, Kokoroko, and Alfa Mist. Meet London-based jazz collective CROOKS INC. and their third-only single "Let Go".

Formed in 2021 CROOKS INC. consists of Aghgul, Daniel, Jajob, Mia, Tom, and Zachary. The 6-piece is inspired by the sound of the 90s r&b and they manage to perfectly blend it with the modern feel of jazz. While still a young band, they've garnered several ears globally and landed on the radar of Spotify editors with support on selections like fine jazz, Jazz UK, Fresh Finds, and LED Lights.

Sonically, "Let Go" is the kind of track that will put an instant smile on your face. I love re-listening to the track in order to re-discover and fall in love with the little details in it. It goes without saying - vocally this is crème de la crème, but credit it is the dynamics in the background that make this track a must-hear for anyone who enjoys soulful music.
