Jules plays several instruments- mainly bass and mandolin, but also phonofiddle, trumpet, saw, nose-flute, and can get a tune out of pretty much anything he can get his hands (or other extremeties) on.
Trained classically as a youngster, moving on to self-taught bass guitar and mandolin in his teens, and these days the double bass is the main weapon of choice. For many years he played the nationally acclaimed band
 “The Thunderbridge Bluegrass Boys” , who are 'resting' as of the end of 2012.
Other current projects include the Great Western Revellers, the Catherine Burke Band
Green & Bushell, Hattie Hatstar, and Jason Baxter’s Little Big Band.
Toured with Kaos Theatre’s ‘The Dream’ as MD, on-stage bassist and live FX.
Played trumpet on Lower Case’s hip hop 12”
