ah, springtime.

Yep, it's really and truly everyone's favorite season now, and we couldn't resist suiting up in our springtime celebration garb and joining the parade at the Inman Park Festival. OK, we weren't really in the parade, but we were standing right there, and it was awesome.

Still, the parade was not quite as awesome as the backyard performance by our good friends Cadillac Jones, who really made it look easy, despite the unusually well-lit environs:

















They even made it sound good, too.

We, on the other hand, accomplished nothing remotely useful over the beautiful weekend. Fortunately, though, we must have been vaguely productive at some point this past winter, when we spontaneously created yet another droney jam. Thus, in the spirit of springtime creativity, we offer:

yet another droney jam.

Enjoy it while you're enjoying the weather, and look for more from us soon...

Hey hey people: Thanks to all who came out to the Earl show a couple of Saturdays ago - it was a great time for all, and we really dug the Preakness and the Selmanaires, both of whom brought the rock like only they can do. The new Preakness record is a good one, too - don't forget to grab a copy ASAP if you haven't already.

Now, if you haven't yet had your fill of the new Jupiter Watts sound, you've got one more chance to catch us in the immediate future: This Wednesday we're playing our first show at 529 in East Atlanta, starting earlyish at 9pm sharp. We know you won't miss it!

As an advance token of our appreciation for your attendance Wednesday night, please accept a studio version of one of the new songs we've been featuring in our recent sets:

ebb/flow.

Seeya soon...

another day at the earl...

Thanks to all who came out to see us at Dunch a few weeks ago - we all had a great time, and it sounds like everyone else did, too. In fact, our friends over at Evilsponge enjoyed it enough to give us a really nice writeup, complete with lots of great photos of the snowy atmosphere - thanks, guys! And thanks to our friend Dixon for the cool photos above.

We hope to see all of you out again this Saturday night - we're really excited to be opening up another show at the Earl for our good friends the Preakness - it's their first full-length CD-release show, believe it or not. They'll be playing in the middle, and rounding out the killer bill (if we do say so ourselves) will be everybody's faves the Selmanaires. We don't even have to tell you this will be the place to be Saturday night, do we? We'll be rocking, rain or shine - doors open at 9:00.

And keep an eye out here for some more tunes soon - hopefully we'll get some stuff up here for ya before our upcoming show on April 8 at 529...

almost there.

Yep, we're just about to play our first show in quite a while - finally! We know you've been waiting with bated breath, so be sure to come out Sunday to the Earl for Dunch - we should play one set around 1:00pm and another around 2:30. We'll be playing a number of new things in a new configuration, so it should be fresh and exciting for all. Just to keep you entertained until then, here's a couple of Jupiter Watts tunes from Ramon's recent solo show at Kavarna; he's accompanied by our good fried Hutch from Cadillac Jones on standup bass. Thanks to Hutch and Gary for the recording.

nothing at all.

jupiter watts go multimedia.

Man, we're really slack about updating this thing - but look for several new posts in the next couple of weeks. We've got to get you hyped for our upcoming Dunch show at the Earl, right? Don't forget: March 1, 1:00pm. Until then, keep yourselves entertained with our first foray into video, lovingly crafted by our very own Ramon "the Domingo" Wals:

just a quick reminder...

...to catch Ramon tomorrow night at Kavarna, playing with some friends from Eskimo Kiss. And here's a little one-off jam from a couple months back to get your weekend started out on a relaxed -but-upbeat-but-also-slightly-strange note:

shameless hobos.

Meanwhile, we're headed out to see some friends play a little reggae with Lloyd's Rocksteady Revue at the Five Spot tonight - maybe we'll see you there.

we were never gone...

...we were just keeping quiet. But no more. Expect to see us out and about more often in the near future: Ramon will be doing a solo appearance at Kavarna next Saturday, January 17, and the band will be playing some new material for a Dunch show at the Earl on March 1. Expect to see a lot more recordings popping up here, too.

In the meantime, keep yourselves occupied with this, improvised by three of us on two different occasions in one room:
