Pola & Bryson, real names Jack "Pola" Higgins and Harry Bryson, are a drum and bass producer/DJ duo from the UK.
Jack Higgins and Harry Bryson crossed paths in 2012, finding a shared love for the genre, this kicked off their journey to becoming Pola & Bryson. Mutually bonding over their shared love of drum & bass purveyors such as Roni Size, Commix, High Contrast, Logistics and Dom & Roland, Jack and Harry began producing music together when they both moved to London to study. Both classically trained from a young age on trumpet, piano and drums, the musical roots of Pola & Bryson run deep, a foundation for all their work that would follow.
In just a few short years of their encounter, the duo formed their own independent label, Soulvent Records and debuted their first EP, The Music in 2015. This EP showcased Pola & Bryson specialty sound. Deep basslines, shimmering breakbeats, airy melodies and electric dubs, The Music, is a testament to their contemporary sound that pays homage to the roots of drum & bass.
2016 saw them firmly make their mark with their debut album ‘This Time Last Year’, released to critical acclaim from both the press and their peers. The year culminated in two nominations at the D&B Arena Awards for ‘Best Newcomer Producers’ and ‘Best New Label’.
2017 marked the next major step as the duo announced their exclusive signing to Shogun Audio. Having already found favour with the likes of Danny Howard on BBC Radio 1 with their first label release, the ‘Find Our Way EP’, Pola & Bryson’s horizons are broadening quickly and with plenty of new music in the pipeline, their story is well on its way.
