Indie Rock from mUmbo

Formed in London in 2021, mUmbo is a trio made by solo artists Doug MacGowan, who plays both electric and acoustic guitars, banjo and bass, and Emma Semple on vocals, violin and viola, later joined by Italian drummer Antonio Dale completing the line up in 2022. Together they combine to create their own distinct sonic offering that takes influence from a range of different styles such as rock, indie pop, blues, folk and jazz.

With a shared love of artists likes Mazzy Star, Goldfrapp, Little Feat, Ry Cooder and Johnny Marr, as mUmbo the three talented musicians craft a timeless and enchanting sound of indie rock music tinged with delicate psychedelic touches. First making an entrance as a pair, Doug and Emma unveiled the new project in August 2021 with the debut album I Fly With Swallows released via Silhouette Records.

Then joined by Antonio on drums, throughout 2022 they shared four new singles, going from strength-to-strength with each new release. Bringing us their latest work, they share their new single titled “Rollin’ Over”, showcasing the very best of their original sound and hook-focused songwriting talents.

With a bright arrangement of jangly instrumentation laying down a retro aesthetic bellow Emma’s softly delivered and compelling vocal work carrying beautifully floating melodic leads, “Rollin’ Over” is mUmbo’s most dazzling work to date. Capturing a breezy vibe of laid back rhythms, warming tones and piquant tropical instrumental touches, on their latest single the talented trio share a unique sound that’s impossible not to love.
