The Correspondents were a British electro swing duo based in London, formed by vocalist and MC Mr. Bruce and producer Tim Cole in 2007.[2]

Their music has been described as electro swing with a mixture of early 20th century jazz and electro and drum and bass.[3] Their live shows and recorded music consisted of multi-genre dance music spanning blues, jazz, soul, funk and out and out electro pop.[4]

The band played at major festivals such as WOMAD,[5] Glastonbury,[6] Bestival,[7] Boomtown and Secret Garden Party.[8]

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.[9][10]
