Jools

To experience Jools in their most chaotic and unpredictable full flight is, the band were
once told, to not know whether you are about to be kicked in the face or kissed on the
cheek. Even that, however, feels like an understatement.
At any moment the Jools experience, on stage and on record, can turn on a sixpence
from that of unbridled rage at the world to a celebration of the beauty that can still be
found hidden in its murky corners. The punk rock of Jools is at once visceral and
violent, cathartic and confrontational, and at the next exultant and exhilarating. Jools is
duality by design, where contradiction is empowerment harnessed as a force for
progress, sonically and societally.
A collective of musicians – Mitch Gordon and Kate Price on vocals, Chris Johnston and
Callum Connachie on guitar, Joe Dodd on Bass, and Chelsea Wrones on drums –
spread between London and Leicester, Jools found each other as much by accident as
design in the earliest days of 2023.
