Miikey's Last Gig @ Bush Hall


Last night was Miikey's last gig with Junk Esquire. We played a short but sweet set at Bush Hall and it went down a treat!

New Vid

Here is a new clip featuring a new unreleased song by Junk singer and bassist Aaron Spiers performed in London 2012.


Miikey D's Last London Gig


Our next big show is at one of our favourite London venues, Bush Hall in Shepherd's Bush. It will be the last gig with Miikey D on the drums before he moves back to the land of Oz. We're definitely going to miss his playing and his warped sense of humour, so we hope to send him off with a bang!

Here is a link to the pre-sale tix: Bush Hall


Spanish Tour Diary Vid!!

Here it is... the main event!! After weeks of trying to figure out how to upload such a large file to YouTube, I've finally got the Spanish tour diary featuring Krissy Matthews, Miikey D and myself online. It's a bit of a laugh, so have a look and a chuckle :)

Spain Video

I'm currently working on a tour diary video of our tour of Spain. Here is the teaser that I've posted to youtube. It's probably best to watch it in HD and even just click on the video, which will take you to youtube itself :)

New Cover :: Ain't No Sunshine

We've put up another live cover on SoundCloud but you can hear it here!!

Here's a little video of Aaron messing around with a built-in chorus effect... if you're not too busy ;)


Great Gig @ The Alley Cat

Aaron & Miikey back from Spain and TOTO


After an unbelievable tour of Spain and Germany, myself and Miikey are back to the grind in London town. We met some incrediable people and ate/drank ourselves stupid. To cap it off we played to over 5000 people in Koln in support of TOTO. What an amazing 2 weeks!!

Our next show is at The Alley Cat (Denmark St) on the 30th of August.  Doors at 7pm,we play at 1030pm and FREE ENRTY!!

Miikey & Aaron off to Spain!

For the next two weeks, Miikey and Aaron will be touring Spain with blues guitarist, Krissy Matthews. They will be performing 9 dates ending with a support slot for Toto in Germany! 

The next Junk Esquire gig will be on the 30th of August @ The Alleycat (Denmark St, London), so get down to see Miikey and Aaron hot off tour.

Gig @ The Old Vic Tunnels

Our next gig is at the Proud Gallery this coming Sunday at 10pm!


Back @ The Proud Galleries - Camden

It seems we did a good job last month at the Proud Galleries because they've asked us back to perform on the 1st of July 2012 @ 10pm. 

Here's a pic of us in action to moisten up your palate...
