I’m not sure if y’all read the 15 day post I did on Sunday, but I mentioned that I have over 16,000 songs on my iPod. It’s actually 16,901; and that’s not including videos, pictures and podcasts. I love music. I’m a connoisseur of music. And I want to share this passion with y’all.
I wanted to kick things off with one of my favorite Canadian artists, I have a few of those now. I actually saw Justin Nozuka on an episode of Degrassi before I knew who he was, before he even started singing professionally. He was on there with his brother, playing the brother to his brother’s character. Big stretch, right?! Well Justin didn’t make his big debut on the music scene until years later with the song “After Tonight” on his debut record ‘Holly‘ in 2007.
The melody is catchy and his voice glides so gracefully over it. Add in the guitar? SOLD!! I quickly got the album and I wasn’t disappointed. With songs like
“Mr. Therapy Man”
“Golden Train”
“Save Him”
and “I’m in Peace”
I knew that he was going to be an artist that I would have on regular rotation. And then he dropped his sophomore album!! Let’s just say that there wasn’t a sophomore slump in this case. ‘You I Wind Land and Sea‘. Some of my favorites from it are
“Soulless Man”
“My Heart is Yours”
“Heartless”
and my absolute favorite song from the album, “Carried You”
I can’t even begin to touch on how talented this guy is. I wish he’d come down to Houston for a show. If you’re reading this Justin, come to Houston!!
If you’re a fan of Jason Mraz or John Mayer, you’ll like this guy. Check him out and let me know what y’all think!!
