On this episode Brian is joined by Justin VR.Justin VR is a singer-songwriter from Cape Town who has actively been involved in events and entertainment for over 25 years with his own sound and lighting business. His love of music began from his childhood years, spending countless hours browsing and listening to his father’s extensive LP collection. He was drawn into every genre imaginable from Rock, Folk, Blues, Country to Pop, and everything in between. 2020 will always stand out as the year when the world was turned on its head, but it was also the year that Justin’s personal music journey begun. Artists around the world reverted to streaming in the hope of getting their voices and music heard. Justin did the same and started weekend online sets from his social media pages called ‘The Garage Sessions’. Producer, musician, and songwriter Malcolm Ormond tuned in with his first live stream and called Justin soon thereafter. They worked on some covers over the years, but this was different. He had something else in my mind and soon they were recording and writing together. A few months later they released a Bluesy-Rock-tinged single ‘Got Me Blind’ reflecting on what lockdown had done to the world, and how it changed them as well. The song was well received with both international and local airplay. Constantly blending guitar-driven Rock with Modern Country and Pop, Justin VR has firmly settled in his own unique sound with follow-up singles and is set to release his latest ‘She Said …’ on Friday 19 May.Find Justin VR here:https://www.facebook.com/justinvrmusichttps://www.instagram.com/justinvrmusic/https://www.youtube.com/@justinvr9770https://open.spotify.com/artist/50T5uoUIrygz8mn9HpTJMP?si=h1T1DdoFR2yx2TtNqHe7jQ&nd=1Find CTMU here:https://linktr.ee/ConcertsthatmadeusNewsletter: https://concertsthatmadeus.aweb.page/p/f065707b-2e34-4268-8e73-94f12bd2e938If you would like to support the show you can do so by rating/reviewing us on Itunes and Spotify or by signing up at https://www.patreon.com/ConcertsthatmadeusSave 10% on Band Builder Academy membership by following this link https://bandbuilderacademy.com/Brian_Concerts/join and using promo code "concerts" at signup.
