HEALTHY JUNKIES VIDEO EXCLUSIVE!

London punks HEALTHY JUNKIES are back with another video which they're premiering exclusively with Vive Le Rock!

Unable to gig for a year, the band have been writing new material and making videos "to keep us sane."

'Streets Of Olympia', taken from the band's Forever On The Road album, is inspired by their 2018 US tour, which took them to the city of Olympia in Washington State for a couple of shows.

"There was a large contingent of homeless teenagers/twenty-somethings in there," says guitarist Phil Honey-Jones. "They lived in tents on a designated car park. They were so welcoming to us, and then moshed themselves into a wild frenzy during our show with one guy breaking a wrist and another girl dislocating her shoulder. It was a cool scene there back in 2018, it was like a modern day court of miracles. I often wonder what became of them. This song is for them."

The video was directed and edited by Shogo Hino and filmed at Jumping Sofa Studio in London.

Currently in the process of recording tracks for their next album, Healthy Junkies are in the throes of planning UK shows for the Autumn.
