Born September 12 1982, in Cape Town South Africa - Justin came to settle in Johannesburg with his parents in 1989 where he sat inspired at the feet of his father who was also a musician, drummer and guitarist. He developed a passion for the acoustic guitar and tought himself to play from age 14 inspired by artists like the GooGooDolls, The Dave Matthews Band and John Mayer. He grew up playing in the odd concert at school until eventually after school having rummaged through some other options starting playing as a session musician for other bands. During that time he played for projects that opened for bands such as Fall Out Boy, Evanesance, Hooberstank, Staind, 3 Doors Down and a couple others. After some time his fellow musicians spurred him on to follow his dream of writing and performing his own material, which in July of 2007 he finally decided to do, starting with the recording of his 1st album. "From Tienie Street"
Justin then moved to the States and caught the attention of Candyrat Records and released his first album under their label. After just more than a year Justin has continued to write and has put some new material together for his second album called "Farther". Farther speaks of the distance Justin has come since Tienie Street (the album) and from Tienie Street (where he grew up), it also represents the distance he endured when he and his, now wife spent more than a year apart while he lived in South Africa and she lived in The States and most of the album talks about their story during this time. Starting with the first song he wrote for her "By June", Justin writes about her leaving South Africa where she had lived for two years and wondering what might have happened between them if she'd stayed. In spite of her having to leave, their relationship progressed and as the album unfolds, so does their story...
