What is the “The Switch”? Well, it’s two parts really.The first part is brand new band made up of Canadian vocalist Bobby John, twin brothers Tom and James Martin (ex-Vega, Nitrate) on guitars and keyboards respectively and Swedish bassist Dennis Butabi Borg (Cruzh).The twins first heard Bobby singing on a song they had written with Eddie LaValle and instantly knew they had to work with him. James Martin explains: “I rang Tom up one morning after hearing Bobby sing and told him that he was our guy – we knew straight away we had the right combination with him.” The brothers then asked their long-term friend and musical collaborator Dennis Butabi Borg, if he’d like to play bass on the entire album and join the group. Dennis accepted. Fast forward 12 months and the album is in the can.Tom Martin says: “It’s the best work we’ve ever been part of: James and I never had complete control of an album with writing and mix, so it’s completely to our taste.” Butabi adds: “I couldn’t agree more, after I’d heard the first demo there was no doubt that I wanted a part of this excellent cocktail of fun, retro vibes that reminds me of growing up in the 80’s. It’s like steering a Testarossa in the Outrun arcade machine while chewing Juicy Fruits and cranking music on your walkman. This is 100% the kind of feel good album that the world needs in these times.”Not only is The Switch a powerhouse group, but the album was written with a theme. Imagine a movie coming out in the 1980’s that gripped the world the same way 80s classics like “Back To The Future” did, but in a parallel Universe. That Movie is called “ The Switch” and it about a band that goes on a U.S tour, and encounters trouble with an underworld Mob. In a cruel twist of fate , the band have to swap guitars for Deadly Weapons and end up in the ultimate fight for survival.This was the biggest movie of 1987 and spawned this huge soundtrack which you can hear on “No Way Out”!

It was written one day on my way home... It was like it came out of the blue!” And Paul Laine orchestrates and sings the backing vocals, adding the final touch of magic.Tom and James Martin heard Bobby sing a song they had written with Eddie LaValle for the first time and immediately knew they had to work with him.James Martin explains: “I called Tom one morning after hearing Bobby sing and told him he was our man—we knew right away that we had the right combination with him.”The brothers then asked their longtime friend and musical collaborator Dennis Butabi Borg if he wanted to play bass on the entire album and join the band.Tom Martin said: “This is the best project we've ever been involved in: James and I have never had complete control over an album, either in terms of writing or mixing, so it's right up our street.”The Switch is not only a powerful band, but the album was written with a specific theme in mind. Imagine a movie released in the 1980s that captivated the world in the same way as classics like Back to the Future, but in a parallel universe.That movie is called The Switch and tells the story of a band that goes on tour in the United States and runs into trouble with the mafia.
