As the name implies, longevity is the
key word to describe this Castaway who joined the band August 4th,
1978. J.T. has the longest standing tenure of any member. He began
his musical career on clarinet in grade school, but switched to sax
by Jr. High. J.T. has played in various rock bands in the Durham area,
but has spent most of his musical career with The Castaways, a gig
that he calls "a dream gig" and a "privilege to be part
of". Having been around for so long, he has seen many people come
and go (and many return), but has enjoyed working with all of the different
personalities. As for the future, J.T. plans to continue performing
as long as the crowds keep coming-something that shows no sign of fading
away. |
