Bruce Foxton is a part of the English Rock and Roll establishment. A musician who is most commonly recognised as bass player in legendary bands The Jam and Stiff Little Fingers.

In The Jam, he and drummer Rick Buckler were the driving force, power and rhythm section behind singer, guitarist, and songwriter Paul Weller. Bruces versatility is evident, taking lead vocals on "David Watts" (The Kinks) and "News Of The World", which was one from his catalogue of own compositions. Foxtons most notable work being "Smithers-Jones", done with bass/guitar/drums for the B-side of "When You're Young" and later reworked with strings for the Setting Sons LP.

Russell Hastings has been working with Bruce Foxton since May 2007. A musician/vocalist in his own right Russell has shocked audiences worldwide with his authentic and passionate interpretation in performance (vocals and guitar) of The Jam's back catalogue.

Russell grew up on The Jam and this is evident in his attention to every detail, from the Rickenbacker to the Marshall 4x4 everything as it was and should be. Energy,pride,execution and dynamic delivery have created an anticipation for 2007 as he collaborates with Bruce and Rick on their reformation.

In 2004, Brzezicki helped found a new band, Casbah Club, with Bruce Foxton and Simon Townshend. Mark joins From The Jam for their winter tour in December 2009.
