Shy Mascot at The Bernard Shaw

About this event

The Dublin based band bring a combination of Hip Hop/R&B/Funk/Jazz styles to create a uniquely provocative sound. Sounds that let you move & sounds that make you groove.

Drawing influence from artists such as The Fugees, Weather Report, and Lianne LaHavas Shy Mascot’s music lives in a realm where complex jazz harmony, free flowing melody and interlocking grooves meet to create everything from boisterous, fast-paced songs to minimalist, spaced-out jams.

"(Jamel) Franklin confounds the MC stereo-type - bashful rather than boastful -but that just makes this elision of rap and electric jazz all the more engaging."

- Cormac Larkin, The Irish Times

"A melding of rap and jazz that combines the murky, spare grooves of Wu-Tang Clan with the invention and harmony of fusion."
