As one of the founding members of Liverpool’s favourite bands Amsterdam, Johnny Barlow has stepped out of the security of the group to lay down his emotions and thoughts on to his debut album The Fosse Way.

Johnny may have come across as a very quiet man within Amsterdam, leaving the talking to his friend and cousin Ian Prowse, but for anybody who has seen Amsterdam perform over the years, one of the things that have stood out is Johnny’s guitar playing, it has been an absolute joy to behold. It is with that in mind that The Fosse way is a truly remarkable piece of musicianship.
