Delightful Precipice contains many individual solo artists, music educators and bandleaders as ensemble members, including Julian Arguelles, Iain Ballamy, Eddie Parker, Steve Buckley, Mark Lockheart, Barak Schmool (F-Ire Collective) and Chris Batchelor. The band is a direct descendant of the 1980s jazz big band Loose Tubes, sharing most of the same personnel and (like the parent band) playing compositions written by Django Bates. The central difference between the two bands is that Bates is the clearly established bandleader and sole composer for Delightful Precipice (although the band has occasionally played music written outside the band by other band members). Delightful Precipice concerts are infrequent due to the financial and logistical problems involved in organising a regular large ensemble, and the band has never issued any recordings under its own name. Instead, the band is one of the several ensembles appearing on Django Bates' own recordings (alongside others such as Human Chain).. }
