Directors/ Music Videos Services

Director Douglas - A superb Director for short films, films, and band videos.   We met him through his drum practice sessions he has here, and being a musician himself, he understands the needs of bands looking to shoot a music video.   So get in touch with him, or at the very least, check out his wesbite.

Promoters/ Club Nights

The Good Ship - Our  old sparring partners at Southern K, Kilburn, run by the fabulous John McCooke.  If you're in a band and want to do a gig and put a lot of work in in order to get a lot out of it, then get in contact with John.  Tell him Jimmy and Fran sent you............   

The Dirty Water Club - Legendary Friday Night Live Club Night based at The Boston Arms, opposite Tufnell Park tube.  Here is where the White Stripes amongst others have played, and always guaranteed to be a sleaze-driven-garage-rock-sweat-fest.    PJ also runs Dirty Water Records.

The Heavy Load Club  &  Southbound   Run  by Rob and Karen, we think that these two different clubs are the best night out in London you can have.  The Heavy Load Club is a psychedelic and vintage rock fest, situated at the Phoenix just off Oxford Street, and the Country rocking Sin City, which is hosted at The Albany opposite Great Portland Street Tube.  Both of them are run by our friends Rob and Karen, and we really cannot think of a better night out in London.  Perfect if you are into vintage rock, good vibes, incense and an attitude free night.

Artrocker -Back in the day, Jimmy and Francesca used to go to all the Artrocker club night's, Tuesday's at the Buffalo Bar, next door to Highbury and Islington Tube Station. Now they seem to have grown into a behemoth of an organisation, but they have done so without compromising on quality.  They've got a magazine, an Awards ceremony, Artrocker TV, as well as their original label.    You name it, they'll have their fingers in the pie there somewhere.  If more people were like Artrocker, then the music scene would be a much better place, and that's the truth.  

Guitar Shops

Wunjo Guitars - Ah, Wunjo guitars, the best guitar shop in London no less!!!  Run by the fantastically skilled and hardworking Brian and situated in the middle of Denmark Street. If you're looking for a new guitar or a repair for your existing guitar then call in on Brian and the lads.

Guitar Repairs

Tom Oakes - He's the guy that fixes our amplifiers at the studios, and a great job he does too.    He used to work at Allen & Heath, and is very knowledgeable about amplifiers, effects pedals and guitars. You'd like him.      

Fredric Effects - Based in Muswell Hill, Tim makes effects pedals.  You be a lot more better off going to Tim rather than buying other branded effects, as they're hand made for better quality if you have any problems, you can just drop him a quick e mail, and he'll sort it out for you. 

Argiriadis Analogue Electronics - Based in Wood Green, custom built amplifiers and amp repairs
