Last passage was in 2009 and we're very excited to go back! Suite for the last mine 25 Years ago the coalmine of Zolder had to close down. This brought also the rich coalmining era in the Benelux to an end. Together with MUZE JAZZ ORCHESTRA and the EXSULTATE CHOIR and video compilation by Remo Perotti & Levi Calcagnile, Steven will play the Suite For The Last Mine in his hometown Heusden-Zolder. Performances on September 30, October 1, 7 and 8. Don't miss out. Tickets on Muze.be New video - The Game is Up This wicked video has been shot by director Daniel Lambo (Duts, Los Flamencos, Traumland, Dry Branches of Iran,…). Last weekend his newest movie "De Figurant" went in première at the Filmfestival of Ostend, but in between the preparations for that film he made time for The Game is Up. Known for his guerrilla-style Lambo took care of the camerawork himself. The video hints at the "Beware of Mr. Baker"-docu about the life of drummer and enfant terrible Ginger Baker. The uncooperative bouncer is played by Luc Dufourmont, the singer of IDiOTS! Homage to Toots With the passing of one of our greatest inspirers' Toots Thielemans, who had played with Tony in the past, StuBru asked us to play a little tribute to this fantastic musician and one of the greatest harmonicaplayers ever. Later on we also played Goodbye (Ode to Toots) @Radio 1. Thank you Toots for your kindness, humour, passion and eternal inspiration! Kanazawa & Osaka Off to Japan again! This time we'll be playing May 25th till 29 in Kanazawa, a city that is connected to our hometown Ghent in The Fourth High School Memorial Park, Ishikawa. Kanazawa here we come! The second part we'll be playing Osaka from the 1st till the 5th of June in the Shin Umeda City (Wonder Square). Sayonara! Wanderland "Not all those who wander are lost". Gertjan Van Hellemont (aka Douglas Firs) invited Steven for a wanderwalk in Radio 1's Wanderland, also available as Podcast. Germany We'll be doing a nice clubtour in Germany from Bremen to Berlin, from Kiel to Karlsruhe and from Chemnitz to Stuttgart. Looking forward to see you there! SRF VIRUS (CH): "Zum Glück haben die Jungs trotz aller Unterschiede aber ins selbe Einmachglas gefunden und sondern frisch und süss und leicht.” SLEAZEMAG (DE): “The Rhythm Junks schaffen es trotz fehlender Gitarre einen Sound zu erschaffen. Genau dieser originelle Sound sorgt für einen Überraschungsmoment, wenn man die Platte einlegt.” AMUSIO (DE): “It Takes A While hat Charme, Witz und Wärme. Nur ein tumber Tor wird sich dem verwehren wollen.” TERRORVERLAG (DE): “Irgendwie cool, irgendwie schräg, irgendwie anders.” FOCUS KNACK: “Als Triggerfinger vet is en Balthazar droog, dan bivakkeren de Junks op de malse groene vlakte daartussenin. Met blijkbaar net zoveel exportwaarde als die twee andere bands. In muzikaal opzicht zijn The Rhythm Junks een wereldband, die lak heeft aan conventies, en een onmiskenbaar eigen karakter heeft.” DE STANDAARD: “Rariteitenkabinet met groove.” ROOTSTIME: “Een aanrader voor wie muziek beluistert zonder oogkleppen.” DE MORGEN: “Tussen beuzelend en briljant.” PARIS-MOVE (FR): "Un tout aussi improbale melting pot de new-wave ethnico-musette, où les ombres de New Order, de Kusturica et de Toots Thielemans s’invitent.” FESTIVALINFO (NL): “Het blijft bijzonder dat een trio in staat is om zo`n spannende sound te creëren. Het trio levert een sterke plaat die getuigt van spelplezier, inventiviteit en een uniek geluid.” Thanks to Popup-Records and the Flemish government for their support! Headphone City Headphone City is our second single and the opening track of our new album It Takes a While. The "Headphone" doesn't need to be taken too literally! For this clip we cooperated with our friend Daniel Lambo of Lambofilms (Duts, Dry Branches of Iran, Traumland and Los Flamencos). We have worked together in the past composing the soundtrack of Los Flamencos. Check it with your friends! Why Would I Worry Our first single of the new album "It Takes a While" is "Why Would I Worry". We were thrilled to work together with director Benny Vandendriessche (Drift, Manngold, Daan, Bobbejaan Schoepen) for the one take video of this song. It's a real time concept with an absurd element. Share if you care! We've got a NEW Album 'It Takes a While' coming! Our new album will be released on the 5th of February 2016. We'll start off the tour with a release show in the AB-club Brussels. Here's an acoustic take on the title track we've just done in our latest AB Session.

We've decided to set up this project after visiting the Ghetto Classics project in Korogocho in February. We've collected harmonica's for the school and will teach the kids how to play them with the help of some Ghetto Classics graduates. Now the harmonica's have arrived, we are thrilled to find out where the "Nairobi Harmonica Express" eventually will lead to and we hope it's going to be a beautiful, funny and inspiring trip for everyone involved! Hohner Rocket! HOHNER Music honours Steven's harmonica playing by choosing him as the face for their new ROCKET harmonica, the latest addition to the "Progressive Line". To announce the new release, they made this portrait of Steven. The Hohner Rocket is a great enhancement of the classic Special 20. Thank you Hohner!

No animals have been hurt during the shooting of this music video! Germany, Switzerland, Austria We are getting great reactions on our release in the GSA. Practise your German here: TERRORVERLAG: "Das ist einfach rhythmische Musik mit hohem Wiedererkennungswert und einem unvergleichlichen Spaßfaktor. Irgendwie cool, irgendwie schräg, irgendwie anders"; JOINMUSIC: "Beim Durchhören und Genießen wird man gemütlich in eine andere Welt verschwinden, sich am Ende etwas reifer fühlen"; MUSIKBLOG: "Eine seltsame, erstaunliche, schwer zu beschreibende Platte, die sowohl den Nebenbei- als auch Intensiv-Test mühelos besteht"; BELIEVE DIGITAL: "Der Song an sich wird in den Vordergrund geholt und verknüpft das neue Album zu einem starken Ganzen"; SRF VIRUS: "Zum Glück haben die Jungs trotz aller Unterschiede aber ins selbe Einmachglas gefunden und liefern mit Some People einen Song ab, der gar nicht sauer schmeckt – sondern im Gegenteil - frisch und süss und leicht".

The Rhythm Junks...Think about pickles when you try to understand The Rhythm Junks. Pickles are the tasty combination of three vegetables, one would not easily combine : gherkin, cauliflower and silver onion. The Rhythm Junks are much alike. They have jazz, pop, rock, blues, folk, roots and soul in their genes.
