Papillons

About Me

Papillons formed from the ashes of Kent-based band Jairus in November 2007. Our music is an amalgamation of various genres, with a DIY approach that many bands seem to lack nowadays.

The band is a musical progression for us personally, and we have many things planned for 2008. We look forward to seeing what the future holds for Papillons...

Above you can hear a demo version of one of our songs, Gilgamesh. This was recorded 100% live at a rehearsal and will probably be re-recorded or re-written for whatever we feel like!
