Biography: Mungos Hi Fi emerged from Glasgow’s vibrant scene at the turn of the millennium. The core lineup—Tom Tattersall and Doug Paine—invited Craig Macleod in 2002 and Jerome Joly in 2006, stabilizing a collaborative project that thrives on live sound systems and studio magic alike. Their approach blends reggae rhythms with deep bass, lush dub textures, and dancehall energy, all delivered with the punch of a quintessential sound system performance.
Discography highlights: The group’s catalog spans two decades, released primarily through Scotch Bonnet Records. Notable albums include 2026 Soundsystem Champions 2, 2023 Past and Present, 2021 Antidote, 2019 More Fyah, 2016 No Wata Down Ting, 2015 You See Me Star, 2014 Prince Fatty Vs Mungo’s Hi-Fi, 2014 Serious Time, 2014 Serious Dubs, 2013 Brand New Bangarang, 2011 Forward Ever, 2009 Sound System Champions, and 2002 Mungo’s Hi Fi Meets Brother Culture. Their 2026 release continues the legacy with fresh collaborations and upgraded production.
Upcoming tour activity: In 2025, Mungos Hi Fi celebrated their UK 25th Anniversary with a Soundsystem Tour across nine cities over five weekends (Norwich, Brighton, Glasgow, Newcastle, Manchester, Leeds, Bristol, London, Birmingham). They also scheduled a US tour in May 2025 with Eva Lazarus, continuing their tradition of high-energy live performances and collaborations. For 2026, expect more festival appearances, club dates, and selective city runs—perfect opportunities to catch the full bass-driven show live.
