2227 Old Fort Pkwy, Murfreesboro, TN

Seasons of Murfreesboro Restaurant & Lounge

Embodying the trifecta of a good ole country boy, Justin grew up on a farm in Wartrace, TN, played every sport in school, and joined the rodeo trail upon graduating high school. The extent of his musical career was singing in the church choir as a kid until one day, music found him again. It all started with a 2 word contribution on someone else’s song and quickly snowballed into having written over 50 songs. At 21 years old, he learned how to play the guitar just two months before his first live show. All it took was that first performance to start being invited to more and more venues and festivals and most recently invited to open for Country Music artist Clay Walker.
