HARRY HUNTER .. BASS GUITAR-VOCALS
This Cincinnati boy hit Fort Lauderdale in 1974. His musical roots and self taught style stem from his musical family. "My Dad played by ear, and was in a band as long as I can remember. I always said I was going to play in a band too!" His brother John was a guitar player. Brothers Jack, Larry & Rick were drummers. Surrounded by musicians at home, he was looking for his own action. "Shortly after I came to South Florida I met Joe through my brothers. We started goofing around with some songs, and the next thing I know, we are playing as a duo act at the SALTY DOG SALOON. It all kinda started from there, lots of good times then, and many more JUSTA HEAD!!" Harry has played in several local bands around town, Thumpers Revue, Criminal, Karnival, Double-Shot and The Electric Lunch Band. "Justa Head will always be my favorite. Joe and I have seen many fine talents in & out of the band, and we are still rockin'." |

KARINA .. VOCALS
Karina was born and raised in Jerusalem, Israel. Her grandmother discovered her musical talent at the early age of three. They were attending church in Bethlehem on Christmas Eve when Karina out of nowhere started to sing with the choir. Since then Karina was asked to be the soloist in every event that took place at the private school which she attended. Karina moved to Florida in 1988, where she attended Gardens high school. She was in choir and continued to get lead rolls in all the musicals the school presented. She competed in local and state competitions receiving “excellent” and “superior” accolades. Karina has performed the National Anthem at the Thomas J. White stadium for the New York Mets and the Roger Dean stadium for the St. Louis Cardinals and the Jupiter Hammerheads. Although Karina is a successful entrepreneur, her true passion and love is for music and singing. Her powerful yet soulful voice offers the unique ability to deliver a vast array of musical styles. She will continue to share her talent for as long as God will let her. |

JOHN BARWICK .. LEAD GUITAR-VOCALS
John has been playing the local rock scene professionally for over 30 years. Johns prefers his tasteful guitar style over the flash guitar players in the area. Hes always right there with the right riff at the right time. Johns versatility adds much dimension to the overall sound of Justa Head. From Stevie Ray to Fiona Apple, John covers it all. Justa Head is glad to have him aboard as he is one of the finer lead guitar players that have been with the band during their long history. |
