Sounds Like: Justine has a voice like no other. At times rough and rugged, that "I've been there" kind of sound that takes you back to her memories and makes you feel her emotions, the way she did, as they escape her soul. Other times her voice is soft and sweet, yet powerful enough to cut right through you. Her guitar playing is unique and takes on the best qualities of all of her influences. Her lyrics will leave you wanting more, and her melodies will linger with you for days.
Record Label: I think I'll start my own...
