Noise Play started off as a single, became a live show, and then concluded as an album called ‘Junk’.  During the first lockdown in 2020, a group of seasoned session musicians remote-recorded a single called Just A Little Bit as a fun distraction and they all ended up being pleasantly surprised by how well the song turned out.  They then developed a live show that struggled to find its feet due to lockdowns, venue changes and injury.  The limited number of shows they did were well received and turned a profit, but soon the band turned their attention to making an album.  Just A Little Bit was re-recorded, five more originals were written and a reworked cover of Neil Finn’s She Will Have Her Way was included.  The album featured guest appearances by Mark Steven (Hands Off), Stephen Small (Hello Sailor) and Eddie Rayner (Split Enz).  It was a fun challenge to produce such an eclectic album, that mixed so many genres and featured such great musicianship.
