Hey! I’m Justin.
I’m a singer-songwriter based in the Flathead Valley of Northwest Montana. I’ve been a singer for as long as I can remember. I picked up the guitar almost 20 years ago and wrote my first songs when I was still in high school. Not long after graduating in 2007, I began recording demos for my debut album and started performing at coffee shops. My first record, “As Young As Yesterday”, was released in 2008.
In my 15 years as a professional musician, I’ve written, recorded and self-released 12 full-length albums, a handful of EP’s, compilations and standalone singles. I describe my music as “pop punk folk rock”. Growing up in the Bay Area of California, I was exposed to pop punk music at an early age. Green Day, blink-182, New Found Glory, Saves the Day and Rancid to name a few. It’s my favorite genre; one that I have a deep, lifelong love and appreciation for. Storytellers like Bob Dylan and Woodie Guthrie are also a source of inspiration to me in my own songwriting and constructing narratives.
I take pride in having a sound that’s uniquely my own. Simply put, music is everything to me.
