We had the pleasure of interviewing Justin Jesso over Zoom video!With over a billion streams across his own releases and collaborations with international pop greats such as Ricky Martin, Maluma, The Backstreet Boys, and Norwegian dance producer Kygo, Justin Jesso is well on his way to cementing his place as a global pop icon. Divided into two parts, Justin’s latest EP “Finding The Opposite Of Loneliness” (Sept 2022) is jam packed with his soulful vocals, pop sensibility, and stadium sized energy. Justin takes listeners on a sonic and emotional ride across nine incredible tracks, based on his own life experiences - navigating depression, anxiety, relationships and his own sense of self. He wants his music to be a force for healing and self discovery, as writing the music has helped him identify his own path to happiness. Signed to Columbia Germany and Epic Records US, Justin released his debut EP “Let it Be Me” in 2019, featuring singles “Getting Closer” (a top 5 radio record in Europe), and "Let It Be Me" (Featuring Nina Nesbitt). Following the global success of Kygo's "Stargazing", co-written by and featuring Justin, fans can expect more original solo music throughout the year following singles "Clarity", “Lifeline”, and "Lose Ya" (June 2022), produced by Oak Felder. And Miracle (Sept 2022), produced by Jakke Ericson. As a writer, Justin co-wrote and earned a Latin Grammy nomination for the No.1 smash “Vente Pa`Ca (Ricky Martin, feat. Maluma)” as well as writing singles for AJ Mitchell, HRVY, K-pop acts like Shinee and Red Velvet, and seasoned veteran acts like the Backstreet Boys, Armin Van Buren, Madcon, Aloe Blacc, Steve Aoki and MAX. Justin recently completed a 14 city 2022 European Headline Tour. Major Summer 2022 international festival appearances with Kygo included such as Electric Love, Airbeat One, Bayside and more. A recent sold-out Madison Square Garden show was the highlight of the run, proving that Justin belongs on arena stages.We want to hear from you!
