After selling out his debut show at Kindo Šiška in 2024, Puma Blue is returning with a brand-new album, full of intimate musical confessions and ambiental touches that reaffirm the Londoner as one of most promising artists of his generation.
FOR FANS OF: King Krule, Jeff Buckley, Radiohead …
Known for blending elements of jazz, soul, and indie music, South London artist and poet Jacob Allen aka Puma Blue, has earned acclaim for his haunting melodies and emotionally charged performances. One of the UK’s most distinctive contemporary voices, Allen frequently collaborates with friends and peers like Biig Piig, Mahalia, and Loyle Carner, bringing his distinctive sensuality, intimate fragility, and nocturnal textures to the table.
After showcasing his evolved craftsmanship and experimental flair on 2023’s critically acclaimed record Holy Waters, and an ambient, lo-fi detour in 2025, Puma Blue returns in 2026 with Croak Dream. The new album blends trip-hop’s shimmering textures, Radiohead-like intensity, and Allen’s haunting vocals that move effortlessly between tenderness and catharsis. Recorded straight to tape, the album took shape through improvised sessions that were later transformed into layered compositions. This unconventional process created a living, breathing record that even surprised the musicians themselves upon hearing the finished work. The result is Puma Blue’s boldest artistic evolution yet – an emotionally charged exploration that embraces imperfection, spontaneity, and the beauty found in risk.
Tickets on sale on Friday, October 24th online and at Eventim outlets.
Organisation: Kino Šiška.
