Jupiter Fungus comes from Piraeus—Athens, Greece. It's a duo consisting of Ares Papatriantafillou (keyboards, vocals) and Fotis Xenikoudakis (flute, whistle). They started working together as a prog-rock duo in 2022.
On November 1, 2024, Sound Effect Records released the duo's debut album, "Garden Electric." It has four lengthy tracks that range in length from about 10 to more than 13 minutes.
"Garden Electric" mixes subgenres into stuff that is clearly influenced by the 1970s yet keeps a modern vibe. On this album, the above-mentioned Ares and Fotis are accompanied by George Emmanuel (electric guitar), George Papageorgiou (acoustic guitar, bass, glockenspiel), and Nick Vell (drums).
With "Garden Electric," Jupiter Fungus is creating one of the best new records on Athens' progressive music scene, which is indeed vibrant these days. The album is available on download, CD, and gatefold LP with astonishing artwork.
