Before delivering their first album, South London-based Ebbb made waves with their live sets and a debut EP that merged seemingly divergent sounds such as rich, ’60s-inspired vocal harmonies, arty synth pop, and diverse, kinetic rhythms, many inspired by the underground club scene. Still evolving with their debut LP, Shallow Hits finds the trio — German producer/instrumentalist Lev Ceylan, Scottish drummer Scott McDonald, and English trained tenor Will Rowland — evoking the wistful, crystalline harmonies of the Beach Boys and the unpredictable electronic-organic textures and song structures of experimental pop groups like Animal Collective and Young Dreams alongside a wide range of mathy, pop, and U.K. jungle-informed rhythms.
