Award-winning songwriter Justin Froese is known for his groove-driven alt pop stylings, built on a diverse palate of musical tastes. His mainstream sensibilities combined with a decade of classical training have resulted in the ability not only to cross genres, but in many cases, defy them.
Justin started recording music at age 11 with his dad’s Sears reel-to-reel player. Then throughout his teens he recorded on 4 track tape machines. It was through the analog linear process of recording that he cut his teeth as an engineer. The migration to digital audio computing was eventually inevitable and Justin became ProTools certified. Along side his own recordings he began to produce other artists, many of which have had great success from his recordings.
Today Justin passionately mentors artists, songwriters and producers in the development of their craft.
