The two-piece drafted Dave Whitmore on bass, and Tony Alda on drums, and soon began to widely tour throughout the whole of the UK and Europe. They’ve shared stages with The Rezillos, The Skeletal Family, Walter Lure, The Professionals, GBH, Vice Squad, Theatre Of Hate, The Sex Gang Children, 999, The Vibrators, Spizz Energi and The Buzzcocks, as well as making regular festival appearances at The Whitby Goth Festival (where they have supported ‘Toyah’) and Corrosion Festival. These performances, as well as yearly appearances at the mighty Rebellion Punk Festival (which the band have played every year since 2012) have resulted in the HEALTHY JUNKIES amassing a considerable following. The energetic UK punks also pricked the ears of recognised American DJ, Rodney Bingenheimer, who widely pushed the band. The unrelenting quartet successfully toured the West Coast of the US in the Autumn of 2018, and in doing so, have obtained a cult fanbase in the States.
Besides their well renowned live reputation, the HEALTHY JUNKIES have racked up broad media praise with their music securing airtime on BBC Radio, Fresh On The Net, Amazing Radio, Planet Rock, Total Rock, and Blank TV. The band have been featured and reviewed by Alt Press, Louder Than War, Big Cheese Magazine, Vive Le Rock, Artrocker, Devolution Magazine, and many others. The quartet also appeared in the music documentary, The United Kingdom of Pop, alongside The Specials; the episode was aired to millions of viewers throughout France and Germany, via ARTE TV, as well as being shown on Sky Arts.
In 2020, the HEALTHY JUNKIES had a switch in their ranks with David Gaut joining on drums. Gaut’s introduction has restored energy to the band. The punk rockers now charge onwards with their breathtaking sixth album, Listen To The Mad, which arrives this year. The band comment about the record: “We recorded all of the songs with Jonathon Jacobs at Audiohaus studios in London. As always with Healthy Junkies we were compelled to make music for the sake of our own sanity. We have been inspired by what we see and hear around us. We never aim to preach but do touch on issues that are affecting many of us.”
With an active live schedule planned for the rest of the year, the HEALTHY JUNKIES are picking up the pace and can’t be stopped.
