Tipping Point released their debut album, The Earthworm's Eye View, in October 2015 on Lamplight Social Records. The album was described as "Playful, dark, skilful and spontaneous… a surefooted trip across many persuasions in contemporary music"[1] by John Fordham in the Guardian and to have “moments of collective beauty” by Daniel Spicer in Jazzwise.[2] The Earthworm's Eye View was also dubbed a best album of 2015 by Jazz on 3[3] and The Guardian.[4]
