The album centres around music from Zoe's "Hull Suite", which was commissioned by Hull Jazz Festival for World Piano Day 2024. Based on themes of voyage, migration and the sea and taking inspiration from two statues in Hull, the music is also deeply connected to Zoe's own family history. Recorded live at the Vortex in June 2025, the music encompasses a wide pallet, with earthy blues influences, soulful melodies and cinematic musical textures that highlight the vibrancy and interaction of this jazz trio at it’s finest. A highly individual pianist and composer, Zoe Rahman’s style is deeply rooted in jazz and reflects her classical background, British/Bengali heritage and her very broad musical taste. A MOBO Award winner, Mercury Prize nominee and Ivor Novello Award winner, she has become a highly sought-after musician on the international jazz scene.

Beyond "should" and "shouldn't" is the place where we meet ourselves. Tara Minton is a Melbourne born harpist, vocalist and composer based in London. She is proudly endorsed by Les Harpes Camac and holds a master's degree in jazz performance from The Guildhall School of Music and Drama.

In July 2023, with the help of "Asociaión Latinoamericana Del Arpa" Tara spent two weeks in México City to compose a new suite of music, "The Devil Invites You To Dance." The music is a marriage between Latin American and British jazz cultures, exploring Méxican mythology, joy, self expression and desire.
