Formed by Chini and Defty in South Manchester, The Mouse Outfit cut their
teeth as a live band for a hip-hop open mic night called In The Loop. It
was at these events that the connections were formed to create 2013’s
debut album Escape Music. A verified UK hip-hop classic, this album
gained The Mouse Outfit a reputation for nurturing local talent and
bringing them to the attention of a wider audience. Tried and tested on
the festival circuit, and highly respected as the UK’s premier live
hip-hop band, their growing reputation caught the attention of the BBC,
who have consistently promoted their music and invited them to two
sessions at Maida Vale and one at Salford’s Media City for Mary Anne
Hobbs.

Their second album ‘Step Steadier’ (2015) cemented their
stature, making the top ten of ABC News’ albums of the year, whilst on
their ‘Remixed’ album (2016) they collaborated with internationally
acclaimed producers, including Dub Phizix, Tall Black Guy and DJ Vadim.

These kind of accolades helped the band reach an international audience which
has allowed them to tour in over 14 countries across Europe and Asia
over the last three years.

Introducing The Mouse Outfit’s third
studio album, the 17 track ’JAGGED TOOTH CROOK’. With over 29 musicians,
vocalists and producers involved in the album (including Blue Note’s
Ashley Henry and the Cinematic Orchestra’s Sam Vicary), this is their
most ambitious project to date. The lead single from the album (I Wonder
- feat. IAMDDB & Fox) has already clocked up over 900,000 views on
Youtube. Production has been overseen by the band founders Chini and
Defty with help from synth wizard Metrodome (LEVELZ).

Contributions have also come from the band’s drummer Deese and Pitch 92 (High Focus).
This
album retains the trademark head nodding beats of the band’s previous
releases, but on Jagged Tooth Crook, The Mouse Outfit’s jazz and soul
influences are even more evident. In truest form Chini and Defty have
sought out a new generation of talent to collaborate with...four tracks
from last year’s breakout soulstress IAMDDB (winner of the breakthrough
act of the year award at Gilles Peterson Worldwide Awards 2018), and a
roster of Manchester’s most talked about rappers and singers, including
Kinkai, Berry Blacc, Ellis Meade & Dubbul O, T-Man and Layfullstop.
Long time collaborators Fox, Sparkz , Dr Syntax & Black Josh are
also present alongside Birmingham based TrueMendous.
