The band’s lineup includes guitarist Guilherme Fells, frontman Juno Valentine, Matilda Harding on guitar and vocals, keys, and Jasper Eade on bass.

Their upcoming album was recorded in an intense five-day session during the winter of 2022, capturing the essence of their raw and unfiltered sound. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Os Mutantes, Link Wray, and Screamin’ Jay Hawkins, Children of The Pope offer a refreshing take on the psych-rock genre.
