Jaws The Shark has unveiled the latest single from his forthcoming debut album, the scuzzy, anthemic ‘Got It Made’ – featuring Deaf Havana frontman James Veck-Gilodi.
The multi-instrumentalist (real name Olly Bailey) has joined forces with James Veck-Gilodi for the brilliantly compelling track, taken from his long-awaited debut album ‘Wasteland’.
It comes following the release of the album’s first single, ‘California’, with ‘Wasteland’ set for release on July 19.

Speaking on how the track came to be, Jaws The Shark has shared:
“I remember writing the main intro riff for it by just subconsciously playing around with an acoustic one day sat on my sofa, something caught my ear and I thought hmm, that reminds me of Smashing Pumpkins.
I just went and tried to make it as heavy as I could, which was quite liberating to be honest. Rather than shy away from the comparison I just thought I’d lean it to it and see where it went.
I was around at James’ place one night and showed him the track, and asked if he fancied having a go at one of the verses, and the rest is history!”
Alongside the single, Jaws The Shark has also shared news of a UK/EU headline tour taking place in September.
