  • Bio

    .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ........ PLEASE NOTE: This is the official Myspace of Justin Sullivan solo. Justin reads your messages and we thank you for your input, support and kind words. All the best from the JS Myspace Crew... .... Sullivan was born in Jordans, Buckinghamshire into a large Quaker family - his father's side of the family being Irish Canadian and his mother's London English. He moved to Bradford in 1976 and founded the legendary underground cult rock band NEW MODEL ARMY in 1980. Since then he has written and recorded more than 200 songs. Across thirteen studio albums, the band have explored a wide range of musical ideas and influences while still remaining true to their roots in the thrilling and the uncompromising. Working outside the mainstream music industry, the band have amassed a fanatically dedicated world-wide following to whom the songs, the passionate live performances, the poetic lyrics and the ideas contained within them, are as important, if not more so, than the group themselves. Since 1985, Justin has been the only original member of an ever-evolving line-up which has seen 14 personnel changes in 30 years of continuous writing, recording and touring. .. .. Parallel to the group, Sullivan has always maintained an active solo career giving live performances in all kinds of different situations. In 2003, he released a first solo album, 'Navigating by the Stars', an album of contemplative music far from adrenalin driven rush of the full band, with musical contributions from Danny Thompson and Mark Feltham as well as from members of NMA. The release co-incided with a cargo-ship voyage across the Atlantic in search of his father's Canadian roots. In 2006, he wrote a specially-commissioned 'Bradford Soundscape', an album of interviews and music - an emotive tribute to the city that has been his home for 34 years and the inspiration for so many of his songs. Also in 2006 he was commissioned by the Illuminate Festival to write a soundtrack for ‘Wuthering Heights‘ featuring readings from that novel set to club-based music. Recently, though, such projects have taken a back-seat as New Model Army have been releasing and touring new albums in quick succession leading up to their 30th Anniversary tour this Autumn. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..For further information visit www.newmodelarmy.org .... .... ...... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ...... ............ .. ..........Copy this code to your website to display this banner:........ .. ....This page was created by De - our Myspace Angel...

    Dear Justin,

    I have followed you and NMA for years now and have seen you lots of times. I was due to see you on the 28th November last year but I could not make it due to a family tragedy.
    I do have a ticket though for Holmfirth on the 24th June. I am really looking forward to this!
    See you soon.
