The Correspondents
The Correspondents were a British electro swing duo based in London, formed by MC and vocalist Ian Bruce and producer Tim Cole in 2007.
Their music has been described as electro swing with a mixture of early 20th century jazz and electro and drum and bass. Their live shows and recorded music consisted of multi-genre dance music spanning blues, jazz, soul, funk and out and out electro pop.
The band played at major festivals such as WOMAD, Glastonbury, Bestival, Boomtown and Secret Garden Party.
Their song "Fear and Delight" was used as the theme tune to BBC Three comedy Crims.
The project was retired on 20 October 2020 after Bruce published a status on The Correspondents' Facebook page stating that Cole had died unexpectedly of a pulmonary embolism a few days prior.
The project resumed on 29 October 2025, when Bruce published a new video on The Correspondents' Youtube channel titled "new music coming".
