Jaws The Shark has released a brand-new single featuring James Veck-Gilodi.

The Deaf Havana man lends his vocals to JTS’ latest effort Got It Made, which is taken from his upcoming debut album Wasteland. “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,’” says Jaws The Shark (real name Olly Bailey).

“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!”
