The track 'Making Love to You is like withdrawing money from a cashpoint machine' from Justine's debut EP 'Acoustic Nerve' has excited members on Garageband recieving reviews like 'undeniably filthy groove' to 'Nice jazzy chords; Sweet, metropolitan vocals; Soulful feel and perfectly understated violin'.
It has been recieved these awards: Best Female Vocals in Acoustic, Most Original in Acoustic and Bitter Breakup Song overall.
It is now Track of the Day on Garageband/penned in for tomorrow (20.03.06) and will be found on this page.
Details of Justine's Debut EP can be found here.
Our favourite reviews from Garageband members can be found here.
Apart from her amazing yet vulnerable vocal quality, Justine's lyrics are auto- biographical, blunt and to the point; inspired by the everyday mundane such as pushing the pram and dodging wheelie bins.
Justine and Liz Ralls are heading into the studio soon to record an EP. The working title is Chocolate and Champagne. It will feature a track by the same title along with other previously unrealeased material such as 'Motherhood Blues'. The forthcoming EP will heavily feature trumpeteer Liz Ralls, with a guest appearance from locally acclaimed singer songwriter Wes Finch on bass guitar.
