Night Owl Presents Los Angeles' JJUUJJUU with Hot Garbage, Peeling

JUUJJUU is a rotating ensemble of domestic and international collaborators, wrangled by Los Angeles based musician, Phil Pirrone. In 2011, Pirrone borrowed an SG and a DL4, and began his exploration of recording looped based music.

He later brought song ideas to life with the rhythmic accompaniment of friend and then collaborator, Andrew Clinco (aka Drab Majesty mastermind Deb Demure). JJUUJJUU’s debut release, 2013's FRST EP, and a subsequent stand alone single, "Bleck," began to build excitement about the project, garnering attention from outlets like Noisey, LA Weekly, Paste and Impose, and multiple appearances on Last Call with Carson Daly.

Throughout this period the lineup and instrumentation of JJUUJJUU moved in step with the project’s ethos of ephemera and flux, as JJUUJJUU continued to tour the US in several different configurations with Pirrone at their center, sharing stages with Tortoise, Allah-Las, Temples, Tinariwen, Night Beats, Les Claypool, Songhoy Blues, and others.
