About the event

Penguin Cafe was founded by Arthur Jeffes, after bringing together a talented group of musicians from Suede, Gorillaz, and Razorlight, to perform his father Simon Jeffes’ legacy of world renowned Penguin Cafe Orchestra music, ten years after his untimely death in 1997. Soon after he began to create new and unique genre-defying music, with the spellbinding philosophy of his father always in mind.


Outside of Penguin Cafe, Arthur’s composition work has included several shorts and commissions. He worked with Greenpeace and Aardman Animations to compose the soundtrack for Turtle Journey, released in 2020 to high acclaim, to promote the Greenpeace ‘Protect the Ocean’ campaign.


With a beguiling blend of melodic instrumental pop absorbing influences of folk, minimalism, and world music, this group are responsible for producing catchy ear-worms: Telephone and Rubber Band, Perpetuum Mobile, Music for a Found Harmonium – a slice of 70s musical counterculture recreated for the 2020s.
