History
The band was formed in 1998 by childhood friends José González and Elias Araya along with Tobias Winterkorn. The group was formed as a hobby for the three, who at the time held other occupations: Winterkorn was a part-time teacher, Araya an art student and González was studying biochemistry. In 2000 they released their first EP, Straight Lines.
The band was put on hold when, in 2003, González's solo career took off, at which time he left his studies and started touring and living from music. In 2005, the band released its second EP, Black Refuge, after which González again embarked on a solo tour.
The band released their first full-length album, Fields, in 2010. On its subsequent tour, the band's live lineup was expanded to include bass and percussion. Three years later, Junip released their self-titled second album. After the recording of the album and before going on its supporting tour, Araya left the band, being replaced on live performances by other drummers.
Their song "Without You" was featured in the last episode of the ABC Family series The Nine Lives of Chloe King on August 16, 2011, and on the "Rewind" episode of the USA Network series Suits on August 9, 2012. On September 22, 2013, their song "Line of Fire" was featured as the background music for a short recap of the AMC series Breaking Bad, which aired immediately after the series' penultimate episode. The song was featured in an episode of the NBC series The Blacklist., in Episode 17 Season 1 of the CW supernatural drama The Originals (TV series) and in episode 18 of season 1 of Elementary . Their music was again featured on Suits when "After All is Said and Done" was played in Season 4 Episode 3 "Two in the Knees". Furthermore, their song was also featured near the end of Episode 5 of Season 1 of Flaked. In 2016 "After All is Said and Done" provided the backing soundtrack to the last scenes of 'Frequency' Season 1 Episode 3.
Their song "Walking Lightly" was featured in the TV series 'Lethal Weapon' at the end of Season 1 Episode 15 "As Good As It Getz".
