Over the past 3 years Täpp has evolved into an ensemble keen to push the boundaries of music and contemporary string writing. Featuring collaborations with musicians from London and Manchester, they independently released their first studio album 'I like what I do // I do what I like' in June 2021, and had notable performances at Pizza Express Jazz Club (Soho) and  Royal Albert Hall - Elgar Room.
