May 26, 2023 • Janet Gardner & Justin James • Season 1 • Episode 239

We talk to Janet Gardner & Justin James. The former Vixen lead singer and her songwriting guitarist partner Justin combined their talents several years ago and now record and release music under the Gardner James moniker. Today they're set to launch a brand new record 'No Strings' which we discuss in this talk along with memories of 1985, early Vixen trips to the UK including Milton Keynes Bowl with Bon Jovi and Skid Row as well as Justin's memories of the Chicago Rock Scene and the bands that put him on the path to a career in rock and roll.
