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, […]
Last night, The Love Junkies played Gaynes Park in Essex. The band turned up early to try out a new lighting rig. Having allowed enough time to give the system a proper workout, we got in a sound check and there-in commenced battle with the sound limiter. Booo! Pah! More frustration! Set very low, the […]

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 […]
Tonight’s gig saw The Love Junkies in the depth of the Hertfordshire countryside in the (presumed) sleepy village of Ashwell. After a quick straw poll, we all agreed that we hadn’t played in a village hall for many a long year. Whilst this fact was not deemed to be hazardous to our existence as musicians, […]
One of the delights of this job is that you occasionally get to play weird and wonderful venues. Cue, Madame Tussauds this Thurs 7th October. This was a gig through agents Prelude and a ‘slap on the back’ type party for a company called Sodexo (we think). We’d played the same event for them last […]

Love Junkies – Guernsey 19th June, Dave, Rachel, Marcus & Chris Did you know the Love Junkies travel? If the last two gigs have been anything to go by this would seem to be becoming a habit. Have van, will travel, etc. And so it was, on a Thursday night in June, driving from St […]
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 […]
