Our Story

Junkyard Heights started as an acoustic, cover trio called, Wheelhouse in 2018. They had such great success playing together, that they casually decided to start writing some original material. Once again, their chemistry shined through, from the stage,now to the studio. As the material started to flow, the trio continued to write. 

With many different influences, Junkyard Heights prides themselves on having a multi-genre sound they call, Dirt Rock. With songs like Rusty Truck, that has a roots rock meets blues rock vibe, to The End of The End, that shows an alternative influence, plus songs like Junkyard Dog, Out the Window Pain and Cherry Pop that are straight up blues rock tunes, and Train to The Morning Sun that leans heavily towards country. 

It is the flexible, diversified approach that makes Junkyard Heights the band 

that they are. With Craig Charles as the lead vocalist and lyricist, Brian Swan as guitarist\songwriter and Kevin Hamm as bass player, song writer and the mix\mastering genius. And now, with the great, recent additions of Liam Wagner (guitar) and Joe Weston (drums) they form an amazing well rounded unit, 

on stage or in the studio
