SJI: Links Round-Up

Hokay, even though I try to make this the one-stop-shop for all things SJI, and try to pull everything together into this one place, we do have other homes on the web.

Like a great silent ghost-ship sailing the digital oceans, the creepy, desolate MySpace has an SJI presence. If you listen closely, you can hear the voices of the damned: http://www.myspace.com/thestjamesinfirmary


Facebook, that MySpace killer, has a clunky and un-navigatable SJI presence too (although they deleted all of my message-board posts, directly inspiring this blog, so thanks for that Facebook):

SJI has a Soundcloud account and aren't afraid to use it, come hither, come yon for songs galore:

SJI has another Soundcloud account which plays host to some more esoteric offerings:

The main home of Almanac downloads and others is Bandcamp:

Twitter? Why not. In the absence of any SJI Twitter presence, follow the components:
@SmokeyBarKid, @SimonFoster1978, @MarkOliver1968

There. A good job well done.

SJI: Gig Cancellation

We're sad to announce that we can't play at the Woodhorn Lane Music Festival this weekend due to band sickness.

There's only one of us is sick, but it's the one irreplaceable component in the slick and well-oiled machine that is St. James Infirmary. Them's the breaks. Watch out for us in August.

Upcoming gig - Three Horse Shoes Beer and Music Festival, 13-15th July 2012



For the third year a-running SJI are thrilled to be included on the bill of the Three Horse Shoes Beer and Music Festival.

This is a great family day out, there's a really good play area for the kids, there's excellent pub-restaurant food if you want to sit down, hog roasts if you don't, a range of beers to try and a whole host of bands. And it's FREE!

SJI are due to perform on Sunday he 15th at 3:45, but these things slip and slide so come early and enjoy the day!
