 The scope, variety and ambition of Ebbb’s debut album ‘Shallow Hits’ is clear from the off. ‘Come Alive’ whirs into being quietly before morphing into a sunkissed, radiant piece of calypso-esque electronic pop; the Latin-flavoured ‘Now You Know’ feels destined to soundtrack sun-drenched festivals this summer; ‘Shallow Hits’ is as deft and detailed as it is big, bold and euphoric; while the wonky yet propulsive charge of ‘Side On’ sounds like a drum ‘n’ bass club and church choir combined.
 A fervent eclecticism and unpredictable restlessness underpins the album. Latterly the record dives into the moody technoid textures and multi-layered harmonies that characterised their debut EP ‘All At Once’ - exemplified by ‘Youth’ and the closing track ‘I’m Not Enough’ that lands an emotional gut punch to an album that is already littered with them. However, there’s a remarkable coherence and identity that underpins the album. Ebbb are exploring far and wide, deep and vast, yet they do so via an approach that remains unmistakably them.
 ‘Shallow Hits’ is an album bursting with ideas, textures, rhythms, detail and emotion. A bold and singular debut record from a group who truly do not sound like anyone else right now.
 Their visceral live performances, coupled with a building hype for their EP from supporters across press and radio culminated with NME awarding them a coveted spot in their 100 Essential Emerging Artists of 2025 list.
 The band have built a storied mythology on London’s underground live circuit with devastating performances and were signed before releasing a single song, having opened for the likes of Mary in the Junkyard, Fcukers, Porridge Radio, PVA, The Voidz, The Orchestra (For Now) and recently heading out on the road with Shame for their European tour in 2025 as well as hitting up festivals including Truck, End of the Road, Latitude, The Great Escape, Pitchfork Music Festival in Paris and more EU festivals including
Reeperbahn and Left of the Dial. This year, the band are due to play Wilderness Festival.
