HISTORIC St Oswald’s Church at Winwick provided the backdrop for rising stars ‘Gustaffson’ as they recorded their latest video for the upcoming release of their new single.
Gustaffson was formed by former Great Sankey High School student, singer & songwriter Andrew Gower, in 2020 with lifelong friend and guitarist James Webster.
Along with band members Dave Gleave (bass), Graham Bennett (drums) and Liam Morson (keys) Gustaffson are truly rising stars and there is no doubt in my mind that they are heading right to the top.
Lead singer Andrew is best known for his work as an actor in TV, Film and Theatre. Starring in hit shows such as Black Mirror, Outlander, and Carnival Row. His voice as a singer is incredible and his vocal range is simply incredible!!!
In August 2023 the band released their latest track ‘CHAMPAGNE SOCIALIST’ recorded live on the Liverpool Empire stage.
It’s received rave reviews from BBC Introducing, The Book of Man, Louder Than War, Liverpool Noise, Upcoming Bands and Uncover and pays homage to past performances in the same theatre by acts such as; The Beatles, The Rolling Stones & Chuck Berry.
Gustaffson are certainly a band to watch out for as they rise to new heights in 2024 and beyond and I for one am waiting with baited breath for the release of their first album in the coming months !!
