THE HOT CLUB OF JUPITER
The Hot Club of Jupiter was formed to provide the music for the 2013 Renault
Clio online ad campaign, which was promptly judged too lewd for public
consumption and withdrawn. The band, however, lives on playing their unique
brand of Gypsy swing, hot jazz and songs of middle-class angst and caddish
behaviour.
Intrepid adventurer violinist Kit Massey has performed all over the globe,
playing violin with the Santiago Philamonia, Chile and studying Karnatic
violin traditions in Mysore, India.
Christian Miller is a much sort-after exponent of French and American guitar
styles often headhunted by visiting international bandleaders.
The rhythm section of Rory Dempsey (double bass) and Matt French (drums) are
veterans of many west end shows but are occasionally allowed to emerge from
the sub-terrain darkness of the orchestral pit to lend their infectious swing
and uncanny musical telepathy to the Hot Club of Jupiter?s sound.

EFFRA
Effra are Alex Bishop (guitar), Tom Newell (fiddle, mandolin) and Aidan
Shepherd (accordion). Heralding from Bath, Shrewsbury and Canterbury
respectively, they met in London in 2011. Although coming from predominantly
rock, classical and jazz backgrounds, a strong connection was quickly formed,
and they began meeting regularly to write and develop music that shared a
common ground.
Early performances were well received, and the band soon grew an identity of
its own, fuelled by ideas brought to the table by all three members. In 2012
after only a year since their first meeting, the band won the Bath Folk
Festival ?New Shoots Competition? on the strength of their compositions and
high-energy performance.

THE HOT CLUB OF JUPITER
The Hot Club of Jupiter was formed to provide the music for the 2013 Renault
Clio online ad campaign, which was promptly judged too lewd for public
consumption and withdrawn. The band, however, lives on playing their unique
brand of Gypsy swing, hot jazz and songs of middle-class angst and caddish
behaviour.
Intrepid adventurer violinist Kit Massey has performed all over the globe,
playing violin with the Santiago Philamonia, Chile and studying Karnatic
violin traditions in Mysore, India.
Christian Miller is a much sort-after exponent of French and American guitar
styles often headhunted by visiting international bandleaders.
The rhythm section of Rory Dempsey (double bass) and Matt French (drums) are
veterans of many west end shows but are occasionally allowed to emerge from
the sub-terrain darkness of the orchestral pit to lend their infectious swing
and uncanny musical telepathy to the Hot Club of Jupiter?s sound.

EFFRA
Effra are Alex Bishop (guitar), Tom Newell (fiddle, mandolin) and Aidan
Shepherd (accordion). Heralding from Bath, Shrewsbury and Canterbury
respectively, they met in London in 2011. Although coming from predominantly
rock, classical and jazz backgrounds, a strong connection was quickly formed,
and they began meeting regularly to write and develop music that shared a
common ground.
Early performances were well received, and the band soon grew an identity of
its own, fuelled by ideas brought to the table by all three members. In 2012
after only a year since their first meeting, the band won the Bath Folk
Festival ?New Shoots Competition? on the strength of their compositions and
high-energy performance.
