Lemon Jelly: Meaning (information, definition, explanation, facts)

Lemon Jelly is a musical collaboration between Nick Franglen and Fred Deakin. Their musical style could be thought to be somewhere between off-center easy listening and trip-hop. They have released three limited-circulation EPs, The Bath, The Yellow, and The Midnight, which were then collected into an album, Lemonjelly.KY which was both a critical and a commercial success. Their latest album, as of early 2004, is Lost Horizons which featured the single Nice Weather For Ducks.

In 2003, Lemon Jelly performed a number of concerts around the UK. Instead of having a support act, Fred and Nick instead organised a giant game of Bingo that many of the attendees played. They also played a Saturday Morning gig named "Jelly Tots" as a charitable event. In between sets, classic British children's cartoons were played over a projection screen. The event also had bouncy castles, clowns and hundreds of balloons.

A number of their tracks have been used by the BBC for trailers, including Nice Weather for Ducks, and Rambling Man.

Their new album, titled '64 - '95, was completed on the 21st April 2004 and will be released on 4th October 2004.
