Live in the Lounge: The Junk Session

On this extraordinary “Live in the Lounge” session, we caught up with Glasgow born singer/songwriter John Smith - otherwise known as Junk, an interesting title that is the exact opposite description of his music!

Junk and his talented band recorded a stellar session for us. If you dig it half as much as we did, go throw them some support, and check out his latest outing “The Last Stand of the Conspiracy Cowboy”
