Roman Jugg (born 25 July 1957 in Caerphilly, South Wales)[1] is a British keyboard player and guitarist. He began his career in the Welsh punk band Victimize[1] in the late 1970s.
Jugg was an acquaintance of bassist Paul Gray, who was a member of The Damned. In late 1981, Jugg worked with the Damned as a touring keyboardist before becoming a full-time member in 1982 for the album Strawberries. Jugg also worked on a number of Damned-adjacent projects, including Naz Nomad and the Nightmares (under the alias Sphix Svenson_. and David Vanian and the Phantom Chords.[1]
After Captain Sensible left The Damned in 1984, Jugg moved from keyboards to main guitar and became a full member[1] on the studio albums Phantasmagoria (1985) and Anything (1986).
After the 1989 breakup of The Damned he continued to work with Dave Vanian and Bryn Merrick, forming The Phantom Chords.[2] A studio album called David Vanian and the Phantom Chords was released in 1995.[3]
In May 2004, after a nine-year absence, Jugg released a new solo album called Papa Loco.[1][4]
