Hot
Club of Jupiter play their unique mix of gypsy swing classics, hot jazz and
original songs.
Intrepid
adventurer violinist Kit Massey has
performed all over the globe, playing with
the
Santiago Philamonia, Chile and studying Karnatic violin traditions in Mysore,
India.
Christian Miller is a much sought-after exponent of French and American
guitar styles often headhunted by visiting international bandleaders. The
rhythm section of Rory Dempsey on double
bass and Matt French on drums are
veterans of many West End shows but are occasionally allowed to emerge from the
subterranean darkness of the orchestral pit to lend their infectious
swing and uncanny musical telepathy to the Hot Club of Jupiter’s sound.
The
band’s brand new debut album, Monsieur le
Robot, reveals a rich and varied sound encompassing New Orleans alongside the
boulevards of pre-war Paris. The album launched to a sold out crowd at London’s
Pizza Express Jazz Club, Dean Street and was performed live on BBC Radio 3.
