John Payne have issued the following update:
John, Jay and Guthrie are pleased to officially announce that the band lineup has finally been completed with the addition of keyboard wizard par excellence Erik Norlander. Erik's evocative synthesizer technique and style is reminiscent of the legendary Rick Wakeman, Keith Emerson and Jon Lord while still creating a very unique musical voice of his own.
Payne adds: "We know that the keyboard position is extremely critical to this band and therefore much time was invested to find the right person and all roads lead us to Erik".
