Led Bib - Hotel Pupik

Vinyl version plus download. Renowned British new wave jazz group Led Bib return in a new keyboard-less formation but with the same high intensity, hybrid fusions and musicality that marked their Mercury Prize nominated successes of the noughties. While they 'continue to make the world safe for dangerous music', the sound of the group has matured and become deeper and more melodic, incorporating influences from other cultures and weaving them into their Motorik, prog and punky DNA. Hotel Pupik is renowned new wave jazz group Led Bib's 11th album and the first to feature the band without a keyboard. 2024 brought a new opportunity - an offer to work as artists in residence at Hotel Pupik in the Austrian countryside to develop a completely new quartet sound without keyboards. Initially there was no intention to create an album, but the music and the spirit of the sessions made this inevitable. Not 'just another Led Bib album', Hotel Pupik represents a reassessment of what the band is now in 2025.
