Bio
Formed in the summer of ’16, The Fifth Star Band is a youthful group of raconteurs looking to make their impact on the music landscape with their soulful indie twist on American Traditional Rock.
The band started in 2016 when singer/songwriter Jordan Sawyer reunited with pianist RaAmen Berry and drummer Alana Lustenberger of City Uncommon. It didn’t take long before these three realized they had something special and sought out the talents of trumpeter Chris France and bassist Steven Cantor. Before they knew it, The Fifth Star Band was formed.
The unique sound, The Fifth Star Band has been able to cultivate is largely due to the diverse musical backgrounds each member of the group brings to the table. While at its core, Jordan Sawyer’s songwriting embodies a modern take on American Traditional Rock, his soulful indie style of writing is rounded out by RaAmen Berry’s jazz/hip-hop style of play. Throw in some funky bass licks, a strong jazzy beat, and a smooth dose of Chris France’s trumpet, you get a sound unlike any other.
“Ultimately, we’re here to make music we love,” remarks Jordan, “____”.
