Mickey Jupp

Mickey Jupp is a British singer-songwriter best known for his work in the pub rock scene during the 1970s. Hailing from Southend-on-Sea, England, Jupp first came to prominence with the band Legend, which blended rock and roll with rhythm and blues. His sharp songwriting and distinctively rootsy style drew comparisons to peers like Nick Lowe and Elvis Costello, and helped pave the way for the punk and new wave movements that followed.

After Legend split, Jupp launched a solo career and released several albums, including the well-regarded Juppanese, produced in part by Rockpile’s Nick Lowe and featuring a mix of polished studio cuts and raw pub rock energy. While never a huge commercial star, Mickey Jupp has earned a devoted fanbase and wide respect from fellow musicians for his clever lyrics and timeless rock and roll sound. His music continues to resonate with audiences who appreciate classic British songwriting with a bluesy edge.
