6 piece instrumental outfit Tanhai Collective draw from Classic Soul Jazz and the jazzier end of post rock. Their groove heavy and melodic music utilises 70’s production and recording techniques for groovy, explosive and occasionally dubbed out tracks.

After winning the the Emerging Artist Competition judged by Norman Jaye MBE resulting in them performing at Cross the Tracks, they released their debut EP ‘The Tanifesto’; laying the groundwork for a solid modern jazz sound. Following this they headlined London’s Jazz Cafe, held a year long residency at ‘Parliamentary Jazz Venue of the Year’ runner up 91 Living Room, and supported Herbie Hancock’s headhunters at Ronnie Scotts for back to back nights. In 2024 they released their critically well received ‘In Lane’ touching left field notes, while drawing from the Jazzier end of Post Rock.

Their newest release set for August 2025 goes back to their roots for melody forward, groove laden and classic sounding Soul Jazz.
