The rock band Junk Farm was called into being in summer 2001. Guitarist, singer and songwriter Benjamin Schippritt: "Actually the trio committed itself to Jazz music, but it's obvious that there wasn’t really a stick-to-the-plan. Looking back to my Heavy Metal roots, it's no surprise at all." That heart of Rock ‘n’ Roll was given a go and Junk Farm became a band that rocks hell for leather, while making very clear, that there are lots of influences of Jazz and other styles of music. Marvelous melodies and dissonant harmonies alternate. Very often their driving grooves move across broken measures. Always in search of the perfect musical "kick", they create a modern rock sound that keeps its distance to the three-chord-only-monoculture. With their unique style you cannot place them into a box... It breaks all the borders between demanding, experimental compositions and catchy tunes with ease, spiced with caustic-sarcastic lyrics.
After their critically acclaimed Unicorn Digital debut album "Ugly Little Thing", Junk Farm now presents their very new output "Didn't Come To Dance". On this album Junk Farm put all their energy into 13 songs, which are meant to be "in your face". In the typical Junk Farm manner, they cover a great variety of styles on a skilled playing level, without losing the red line and the main topic "Power-Rock". If you ever wanted to know how it feels to be a stalker, how it is to talk to yourself, what do girls hide in their purse, what it means to grow old or how to write a love song ;-) .... this and much more is covered on this album. Although the music is complex, it is very catchy and easy to listen to. But not too much cause you know: They didn't come to dance!

Benjamin Schippritt - electric & acoustic guitar, lead vocals
