Project Gemini is the current vehicle for producer Paul Osborne. With two stunning studio albums released, ?The Children of Scorpio? (2022) and ?Colours & Light? (2024) they have gained recognition at BBC 6Music from Gideon Coe, Huey Morgan and Don Letts among others.
?Colours & Light? featured in the top 5 of Shindig Magazine?s albums of 2024 list, and was selected by US radio station KEXP as one of their albums of the year.
Over the last 12 months Project Gemini has ventured out of the studio as a 4-piece band featuring Jack Sharp (Large Plants/Wolf People) on guitar, Tony Coote (Little Barrie/PP Arnold/Greg Foat/Steve Craddock) on drums and Bert Page (The Cromagnon Band) on keys.
Their expansive cinematic sound delivers an infectious psychedelic groove with cyclical hooks and riffs, funky bubbling bass lines and scintillating guitar breaks. Their live performances see the band working together beautifully with songs building to full wig-out
To date they have played only a handful of shows including support to The Brian Jonestown Massacre on their recent UK tour. With increasing exposure Project Gemini are a band that will be much talked about in 2025.

They release their debut album in May 2025 through Rise Above Records.
