Archive material and source history
Junkyard Drive is a rock band from Newcastle upon Tyne. Their 2007 single "Geordie" gave them a local following and some wider attention. The song became an anthem in the North East, often played at sports events and embraced as a point of regional pride.
They released their debut album "Get Up" in 2008, followed by records like "Jailbreak" in 2010 and "Streetwise" in 2016. The band's lineup has included Dave Green on vocals and guitar, Chris Calvert on bass, Darren Chisholm on drums, and Ross Thomson on guitar. Their music tends to lean into straightforward, energetic rock with lyrics that connect with working-class listeners.
Junkyard Drive kept putting out albums, including "The New Era" in 2019. They've built a reputation as a solid live act, particularly around their home region, without becoming a major national name. The story in their catalog copy mentions some past turbulence, but the band has persisted, staying active on the road and in the studio.
