Justin Davies is a Western Australian acoustic singer songwriter with a flair for connecting with his audience through the strings of his guitar and the stories in his songs. Hailing from the South West WA country town of Donnybrook, Justin is an artist who’s all about keeping it real and playing tunes that resonate with people from all walks of life.
His music is a mixture of country blues with a hint of rock. His song writing is based on personal experiences and perspectives.
“I start with the lyrics. I’ve always been fascinated by artists like Paul Kelly who always has something to say in a song, whether a message or just an engaging story. The music then wraps around the lyrics – and it comes together from there” says Justin.
“Whilst I studied piano as a kid, music never took off for me then in playing – although I was obsessed with music in my teens. Then my brother brought home ZZ Top’s Eliminator album – then I bought a guitar, and became obsessed with it.”
The country music comes to the fore with country band, as Justin Davies and The Prairie Oysters.
Justin believes that it is all about sharing moments and making memories. His approach to music is straightforward: it’s about playing good songs that tell a story, set a mood, and maybe even get you to see a part of your own life in a new light.
Justin has appeared and played on Radio Fremantle. He has played many venues in Perth, Fremantle and of course, the South West. Plus he has played at the Mandurah Country Music Festival, Gidgestock, the Blossom Festival in Boddington and numerous gigs with The Michael Ward Trio.
