Led Bib: It's Not Lady Gaga
by Bruce Lindsay
Led Bib: a short, sharp shock of a name for one of the hardest-hitting bands on the UK jazz scene. But the name doesn't tell the whole story, for this is also a band that's capable of inventive and intensely emotive music as well as the riff-laden numbers that have helped it to earn the label ...
Led Bib: Bring Your Own
by Bruce Lindsay
Led Bib has never been an easy ensemble to pigeonhole: according to critics and reviewers the band is “punk jazz," free improvisation, avant-garde, skronk, dirty jazz--and, most splendidly, “death-jazz-cum-math-punk." On the evidence of the London-based band's fourth album, Bring Your Own, it's all of the above, and a little bit more. This is music for dancing, ...
Led Bib: Bring Your Own
by Chris May
Writing about Led Bib's Mercury Prize-nominated album, the raucous and confrontational Sensible Shoes (Cuneiform, 2009), Britain's Rupert Murdoch-owned Sun newspaper--which speaks with as much authority about jazz as Murdoch's Fox News speaks about politics--declared: “Led Bib are the band bringing jazz back to contemporary music's cutting edge."

Led Bib: Sensible Shoes
by Jerry D'Souza
An education can be an asset in more ways than one. Drummer/composer Mark Holub formed his band Led Bib in 2003 as part of his M.A. at Middlesex University in London, England. The initial line-up was fluid, settling down to the current one with Liran Donin (bass), Toby McLaren (keyboards), Pete Grogan (saxophone) and Chris Williams ...
Led Bib: Sensible Shoes
by AAJ Italy Staff
I tempi cambiano. Una volta si ascoltavano e si scriveva dei Led Zeppelin, oggi dei Led Bib. A parte il “Led" del nome non c'è però nulla in comune fra le due band. Solo il fatto che ci sono 30 anni più o meno di storia di mezzo. “Scarpe Sensibili" è il bel titolo del rumoristico ...
