Wifi passwords. Sheesh. I don’t know how many gigs we’ve been to where there’s a wifi connection, but they just never work. Got us thinking about why the hell this is? Why isn’t it as simple as plugging into the mains? Why does there always need to be a sodding password!? Tonight’s delightful cipher is […]
Inn on the Lake
These days Love Junkies blog posts may be something of a rarity. That’s not to say we don’t have anything to share – if anything we have too much. Even after we’ve cleaned it up a bit. It’s just that, well the prose has been lacking of late.
New Showreel – Live Lounge ‘styley’
Earlier this month The Love Junkies convened at Anchor Baby in deepest darkest Kent to shoot a new show reel. The aim of the game, to shoot a video capturing the heart of the band live, showing as informally as possible the musicianship, personality and look of the band, whilst showcasing the best new contemporary […]

Ghosts in the machine
Eltham Palace… is a ‘venue’. I mean, wow! It really is something else… from the bond-villain style art deco round room, to the imposing great Hall where Henry and Elizabeth probably presided over court. Last night, The Love Junkies plus performed to a ruby wedding crowd at one of London’s finest heritage sites. Souped up, turbo […]
It’s a long way to the top if you wanna rock ‘n roll. It’s even further up the A11
It’s a long way to the top if you want to rock ‘n roll. It’s also a bloody long way up the A11 to Norwich if you want to ‘funk ‘n soul’. Not that we’re complaining. It was an absolute pleasure to be asked up to Rocco’s nightclub this Easter Sunday. Quiet little gig? Not […]
Love Junkies Photo-shoot Day – Video Diary
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 […]
Amazing Venues, Difficult Get-in’s
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, […]
No gain in Gaynes park
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 […]
