Gotts Street Park - Diego (Official Video)

Leeds collective Gotts Street Park, share their new singleDiego’ from their upcoming 4-track EP, alongside announcing three headline shows this September in Leeds and London.

Famed for their contemporary take on a retro sound, the trio comprising of Josh Crocker (bass, production), Tom Henry (keys) and Joe Harris (guitar) have garnered fans and notable acclaim from an impressive litany of talent. Their seamless blend of traditional soul meets contemporary hip-hop has underpinned vocals from Rejjie Snow, Kali Uchis, Cosima, Yellow Days, Chester Watson, Celeste, Rosie Lowe to name a few.

However, 2021 sees Gotts Street Park take a different tack exploring what is at the nucleus of GSP. New EP ‘Diego’ [released on Blue Flowers Music] is a musical suite of instrumental songs formed from the raw, live chemistry of congregating physically in a room. Turning their inspiration loose and escaping predictability, GSP drew from the splicing techniques employed by Miles Davis’ ‘Bitches Brew’ to create a series of moments isolated, assembled and resampled, forming the illusion of one organic, fluid take.
