Little Bulb Band
We often get asked to gigs and if we can make it work we do. Our set list is an ever-changing array of songs from our shows, songs that never made it into a show, songs we’ve written and covers that we’ve picked up along the way. Our band can be any amalgamation of our creative team, our associate artists and any other musicians we are working with at the time. We play folk, disco, funk, swing, jazz, rock, indie, classical and various experimental genre mash ups depending on the occasion. If you want to know more about our musical adventures or if you’d like to book Little Bulb for a gig then please get in touch via our Contact page.
Hot Club du Bulb
Hot Club du Bulb is our gypsy jazz, French chanson and swing band alter ego. During the making of Orpheus we took to playing music we’d been working on for the production for various one off occasions at theatres, bars and parties.
​
When we finally finished the show we had loads of music that didn’t make it in to the final production so we started playing a late night post show set on the weekends of the first London run. We love taking the music outside of the theatre context and have played all kinds of one off gigs whenever we get the chance. We play a raucous mix of Django Reinhardt, Edith Piaf, Swing Jazz and the occasional contemporary cover thrown in for fun.
