As a composer, Justin boasts influences from a diverse and well listened ear. Most prevalent are his jazz compositions and lyrics which are now regularly performed by himself and other artists.
His compositions and productions have even started to find themselves on to independents films being shown at major screen festivals.
Justin’s last major composition was "A Night in Central" which saw him collaborating with saxophonists Vasilis Xenopoulos and Pete Cook to create the ultimate soundtrack for London.
Current composition and performance projects include the new "Modus" trio which will début early 2011 and "The Lucy Morris Band" which is already gigging with a hope to feature in this summer's jazz festivals.
