Justin is ready to bring the house down with his range of entertaining country tunes.

In 2015, Justin had three top 10 country hits in the national radio airplay Country Tracks Chart Top 40.

His other achievements include: Queensland Champion of Champions 2012, Most Promising Country Music Entertainer at the Trans-Tasman Entertainer Awards 2013 and Songs Alive Comedy Song of the Year in 2015.

Justin shot to national prominence in late 2012 after appearing as a top 12 finalist on the television show X Factor.  He auditioned for the show in the hope that it would help him reunite with his missing children. 

He had lost contact with his three young children 12 years ago after the breakdown of his relationship with their mother and had tried many ways to find them before making his X Factor plea.

The show did exactly what he had planned, he managed to reunite with his then 18-year-old daughter at the end of 2012 but it also put him in the public eye as country music star. 

Since then, Justin has proven to be a popular festival and club performer, touring regularly across Australia and overseas.

Justin is known for his distinctive voice and impressive vocal range.

He has received accolades for his song writing, which include yodelling, indigenous songs, comedy songs and beautiful ballads.

After a long time on the road, at the start of 2014 Justin decided it was time to take a step back from the music industry. Thankfully he changed his mind and continues to write and perform. 

In 2015 he recorded his award winning Red Light EP with Pacific Internationl Music in both Queensland and Nashville. 

Recorded his award winning Red Light EP with Pacific International Music 2015 (QLD and Nashville).

The album boasts three top 10 country hits including the song Hard Easy which reached the number one spot on the Country Tracks Chart Top 40.

Justin cites Banjo Patterson, John Denver, Roy Orbison, Buddy Holly, The Everly Brothers, Ben Harper, Sara Storer, Lindsay Butler and Slim Whitman as his greatest musical and poetic influences.

He is originally from Bundaberg and when he is not touring he lives in Seaford VIC, with his partner, Peter.

Justin enjoys giving back and has taught a women's choir in a maximum security women's prison.

He has also taught country songwriting and music in rural and remote schools in North Queensland, as well as songwriting workshops for country choirs in NSW.
