What the bandleader says about Justin Swaine

“Justin is a great addition to the band,” says Stuart; “He’s so skilled and capable across so many musical styles. With Justin, we can perform almost anything. This includes many modern pop hits that other bands would struggle to do. Having someone as musical as Justin means that whatever new tunes we add to our repertoire, I know he’ll come up with just the right parts and just the sounds. All performed with his usual brilliance. A great asset to the band”.
