Music by Nick Justice

  • Bogart's Coffee House 905 Ocean Ave. Seal Beach, CA 90740 (map)

If Nick Justice’s career has found him lurking below the radar, it’s only because he’s the one that initially put the brakes on. Weaned on the Southern California sound — as represented by the Eagles, Crosby, Stills and Nash and Jackson Browne — he was lured to the Golden State in the late ‘80s and became a journeyman troubador of sorts — busking, paying his dues  in various itinerate ensembles and playing for whoever would listen. Eventually he worked his way up to the status  of an opening act, serving a support role to number of important outfits — X, the Blasters, the Radiators, INXS, the Del Fuegos and other ‘80s and ‘90s scene-setters. Justice has a knack for sharing a kind of breezy balladry and while his is a generally unassuming sound, the music is still seeped in sentiment and an easy, affable embrace. Nick Justice is a great story teller in the true fashion of the traveling Troubador. With 5 previous critically acclaimed solo records and one collaboration with The SideMen, Justice is currently finishing up his 6th solo record titled "Stranger inMy Town" produced by folk legend Joel Rafael and a supporting cast of Greg Leisz on pedal steel and dobro (Jackson Browne Band), Mai Leisz on bass (David Crosby Band), and Richard Stekol on guitar (Honk, Funky Kings).
