Ban The Use Of Jazz Music

After more than four years together, Cork octet Cartoon finally unleash the album to prove that despite their joke name and the light-hearted nature of the title, Christ they mean business.
Perfectly timed for the re-introduction of summer’s vital signs, the mastermind duo of Bob Jackson and Darragh O’Connor transport you to a different dimension, where worries are a distant memory and a contented smile on your face is mandatory. Opener ‘Karmasookie’ is a breezy sunny tune, aided immensely by the soulful voice of Chicago native Karen Underwood (where did they find such a gem?).
Deeper into the album, the instrumental interlude of ‘Ban The Use Of Jazz Music’ offers the listener a chance to regain their breath and down a quick drink before returning to the dancefloor of the mind with ‘Singing This Song’.
