v2.0 is the second studio album by jazz piano trio GoGo Penguin, released in 2014. The title is an allusion to an abbreviation commonly used in software versioning.
Critical reception
About v2.0, Bruce Lindsay says in All About Jazz that "v2.0 is the sound of a band moving forward—not in leaps and bounds, but in small steps. There's really no need to jump headlong into the unknown when the foundations set down on Fanfares were so strong. v2.0 builds on those foundations with style, further establishing GoGo Penguin as one of the most exciting young bands on the contemporary scene."
This album was nominated for the Mercury Prize in 2014.{{cite web| title=Mercury Prize's previous shortlists| url =http://www.mercuryprize.com/previous%20shortlists| publisher =Mercury Prize| accessdate = March 31, 2017}}
