Janus UK

Sadly the beating heart of the original Janus is no longer with us.

Christmas Day 2024 saw Keith Bonthrone leaving the party early, another victim of “turbo cancer”.

He was a great musician, a great vocalist, and a dear friend to all of us.

I used to hate that phrase that somebody “died surrounded by their family”, but the love and care from Keiths family showed me how much that means.

Farewell brother, the new album is dedicated to you.

Colin, Roy, Bruno, and Mick.

Here’s Keith on lead vocals on a really rough unreleased demo track...

About Us

Janus is a successful rock band that has been creating music since 1971. Our music has been featured in TV and film, we've done session work in Nashville, had a couple of minor hits, but our original "Gravedigger" album, is STILL played every hour of every day, somewhere in the world..... which probably makes one of the us the best kept secrets in the industry.
