Welcome to Orville’s Discotheque: a synth-drenched concept album brought to you by indie singer-songwriter from Somerset, Jeremy Tuplin - set to be released on 19th May on Trapped Animal Records on 180GSM luxury 'Blue Suede' vinyl.



An Orphic tale, Orville’s Discotheque and its multitude of characters - Orville (loosely Orpheus), Eugenie (loosely Eurydice), Hermes, Hades and Persephone - takes inspiration from Greek mythology but is also very much a story unto itself. Set in a world slightly left of reality, the record tells the story of a flawed disco-enthused antihero and his romantic travails. Possibly taking place in the 70s, the 80s, present day or maybe somewhere far into the future. Sad disco, dark disco, devilish disco, whatever he chooses to call it, Orville’s Discotheque is a quirky underworld, or dancefloor, for you to “step on in and slide through.”
