Ah, the sweet and sunny end of September. Glorious weather for beautiful people to enjoy. And so with light hearts and good intentions we made our way to Top Frog Studios in Ashford to get some new band piccies. New, being the operative word here. Our last promo shot has done us rather well, but […]
We love a bit of a fanfare. Masters of ceremonies, trumpeters, honour guards and salutations – the works if you can provide that’d be lovely. However the best that we’ve managed so far is to have the Tower of London drawbridge raised for our benefit. On that occasion we were performing on the Dixie Queen, […]
Ladies and Gentlemen, after many successful years of performing Disco, Motown, Funk and Soul, the Love Junkies are pleased to announce their plans for the future. . . . . MOre DiscO! MoRe moToWn! MORe FuNk and even MORE SOuL!! But in addition ….. drum roll please …. we have decided to move firmly into […]
Shepherd Neame Brewery, Faversham. A rescheduled Christmas party, a perfect venue plus ‘The Love Junkies’. Certainly, there’s no shortage of beer here. In fact we’ll wager that we’d have all been able to get free top-ups all night… that is if we hadn’t had to work. Dave opted for the Master Brew, Andee P, taking […]
Rozz and Jimmy – It’s a funny old game… Ah June, and the first part of our European Sojourn. Chateau De Massillan, near Uchaux, France the wedding of Victoria and Oliver. And did we mention meeting Jimmy Greaves to boot? The Bride and Groom had seen us at a friend’s wedding at the Royal Chace in […]

I wouldn’t say it’s been a harsh winter gig-wise but January and February have been a bit quiet on the wedding front so it was nice to get back into the swing of it again with Charlotte and John’s wedding at Brocket Hall. For couples worried about their guests feet during dancing, here’s an idea. […]
Just what is it about bass players and pantomimes? Like proverbial moths, fluttering over to a naked candle they are all drawn by the lure of regular Christmas work. ’tis the season, and all that we suppose. This is all very nice for the bassist, oh yes, nice sit down in the pit, plundering bass […]
Here’s one that I’m going to put out to the function band community. Is it right to charge for learning a new song for, say a wedding? A song that you’re very unlikely to play again and is not in keeping with the rest of your set. This issue is salient for the hirer also. […]
We’re pleased to announce a new relationship with agents ‘Love Live Music’. Our first gig for the agency, run by Sally Freeman was on Saturday night at the Merchant Taylors school. The gig was a fund raiser and dinner for the Scrummers, Rugby Club.
