JUNK MALE BAND
“At every show we’ve played, people just can’t stay seated—even in restaurants where dancing’s usually frowned upon!"
We’re Junk Male, a rock ’n’ roll band that’s been serving up ‘Old Gold Retold’ for over a decade. From pubs and clubs to weddings, beer festivals, and even BBC staff parties, we bring the good times with timeless hits from the 60s and 70s—think The Rolling Stones, Clapton, Dire Straits, The Kinks, and The Beatles. We love sharing these classics and promise to get everyone on their feet, tapping into the spirit of rock’s golden age. Let’s make your next event one to remember!”
THE BAND
Meet the merry troublemakers of Junk Male:
Jon Jefferies (Vocals, Harmonica): The frontman who’s never met a microphone—or a harmonica—he couldn’t coax to new heights.
Pete Murray (Bass): Lays down grooves so deep, you’ll feel them in your soul.
Alex Rowson (Drums): Our percussive powerhouse, bringing the thunder to every gig.
Rog Bamford (Rhythm): The steady hand on the fretboard, keeping our ‘Old Gold Retold’ tight and true.
Tony Kay (Lead): If there’s a solo to shred, he’s your man—have your air guitar at the ready!
We’ve put in the miles and turned up the amps more times than we can count, but our passion for raw, unapologetic rock ’n’ roll still burns bright. Come join the party—just be prepared to sing, shout, and shake a leg (or two)!

SAMPLE TRACKS
VIDEO
Take a peek—and have a listen—to some moments we’ve captured from gigs all across Somerset. Yes, the band’s line-up has changed a few times over the years, but our devotion to rock ’n’ roll (or as we affectionately call it, ‘Old Gold Retold’) has stayed as loud as our amps. Think toe-tapping riffs, soaring solos, and the kind of energy that gets even the quietest crowd on its feet.
Below, you’ll also find links to a handful of studio tracks we recorded a while back—typical tunes from our setlist, guaranteed to fire up your day. So crank up the volume (sorry, neighbours) and let these classics carry you away. We hope you enjoy listening as much as we love belting them out!

“Thank you. Great music, great lights and effects.”

“Well played, it was a shame you had to stop playing in time for Evensong in the Cathedral, otherwise the crowd would have carried on dancing!”
BIRTHDAY

“Well played last night, your choice of music was loved by young and old alike.”
“Thank you Junk Male. To say the party went well was an understatement!”
