Don't call ‘The Best Is Yet To Come’ a best-of album, because Joost Zweegers doesn't like that. ‘Be great or be gone’ is the slogan that has been hanging above his piano for many years. The slogan that ensures that Novastar is even now more relevant than ever and that this songwriter continues to deliver timeless songs. But companions Mikey Rowe & Andrew Britton were able to convince him to put a collection of his best-loved songs in a fresh, live-inspired format.
The record also needed that authentic live energy, and thanks to pianist Mikey Rowe (Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds), guitarist Andy Britton (Top Gear soundtracks), guitarist Skin Tyson (Robert Plant), drummer Keith Prior (David Gray), and bassist Erik Rademakers (Selah Sue), he succeeded. Together with this band, Joost dove into the famous ‘Studio 2’ of Abbey Road Studios, at the exact same place where his great heroes The Beatles recorded their greatest successes. Novastar at Abbey Road. Coming full circle.
Along with the album ‘The Best Is Yet To Come’, Joost also wants to do what he lives for: performing live on stage.
