Blue Jupiters

About Me

Throughout the history of music in the UK there has been various 'hot spots' that seem to produce the best bands around. But while the industry has had its eyes so firmly fixed on the likes of Manchester, Glasgow and London, its been overlooking the talent that has been brewing in the depths of North Yorkshire

From a small town of local people come Blue Jupiter's. A talented, energetic band with a real determination for musical progression and success. Their music echoes a variety of influences, from the likes of Brian Wilson to David Bowie, The Clash to Jeff Buckley. But together they have created an individual and distinctive sound.
After forming in late 2007 the band have already started to attract attention. With shows all over the country and supports with the likes of the Young Knives and We are the Physics, they are becoming one of the most exciting unsigned bands about.
Listen to their music, see them live, and you'll soon realize that this is something you don't want to miss.

"...Amazing unsigned talent....they sound as good, tight, and professional as any of the major label artists i play on my radio show"
Clint Boon - Xfm Manchester
"Blue Jupiters are cult meets mainstream, Jeff Buckley meets Razorlight. With an edgy raw sound, they use catchy hooks and melodies combined brilliant vocal harmonies to create a totally fresh and original sound"
Mike Heaton - Embrace
