The Conglomerate

The Conglomerate

The Conglomerate are a jazz quartet from Melbourne. The band consists of Harry Angus on trumpet and vocals, Ollie McGill on piano, Jules Pascoe on double bass and Harry Shaw-Reynolds on drums. McGill and Angus are also members of The Cat Empire.

The group has an independent album, distributed by MGM, "The Conglomerate go to the Beach". "An anarchic road trip soundtrack" according to Melbourne's The Age, which described the group as "like a cricket team on a Friday night bender... good, clean, all-Australian tomfoolery that nonetheless radiates the match fitness of proper pros."

The Conglomerate's second album, "Hold Your Breath" was launched at Bennett's Lane Jazz Club on March 28 2008.
