Band of Holy Joy

Indie-folk band formed initially in 1984, before splitting in 1993, reforming briefly in 2002 (then splitting again) and reforming in 2007.

With up to 30 ex-band members, BOHJ are currently comprised of Johny Brown, Chris Brierley, Andy Astle,Inga Tillere and Bill Lewington.

They flirted with crossover status with two key albums in the late 80's/early 90's - "Manic, Magic and Majestic" and "Positively Spooked" both appeared on the independent chart. In 2019, they issued the album Neon Primitives.
