Jazz/electro collective Portico Quartet remains one of London’s best kept secrets, with an ability to consistently push the boundaries of their creativity while immersing the listener in their world. The Mercury nominated band’s latest music video for the single “Steepless” serves as a prime example of the brilliance of their composition.
Featuring the airy vocals of Cornelia, the single is the group’s first ever vocal collaboration; taken from their self-titled third album, which was released in January through Real World Records. [buy here]
