JUSTYN DOW
Pop / Rock
Minneapolis, MN
Justyn Dow is a pop/rock artist who calls Minneapolis, MN home. As an only child Dow took solitude with his guitar, writing songs as a therapeutic hobby. From heartache to happiness, a simple guitar strum woven with a string of words took the form of a diary. Within that journey, he slowly discovered a passion that pushed his hobby towards a profession. Although influenced by bands like Kings of Leon, OneRepublic and The Fray, Dow has a unique sound of his own - driven by distinct edgy-rock vocals and pop-laced melodies. “To me, writing is a forum to express myself and reflect,” says Justyn. “It’s a diary. A confessional. As an only child, and a guy, I tend to write about subjects that aren’t easy to publically discuss. It’s a place where I can be open and honest with myself.”
Justyn’s song, “What She’s Doing Now,” was featured on the Indie Music Channel’s “Indie Music Countdown” and was voted up to #1. Since the release of his debut EP “Dim Light Shining” in February 2011, Dow has released over 40 music videos on YouTube, assembled a complimenting backing band and seems poised to take on the music industry. It’s hard to ignore the momentum.
Quotes:
“From the moment I started spinning his song, my listeners voted it all the way to the #1 spot! His music grabs a listener’s attention instantly because of his awesome vocals and excellent songwriting skills. Justyn is, without a doubt, one of the best young singer/songwriters out there today.”
- Christopher Ewing, Pres of the Indie Music Channel and Host of “The Radio Cafe ReverbNation Indie Music Countdown”
