On this episode of Roger The Wild Child Show: Nashville, we are joined by country music singer/songwriter Justin Biltonen (bassist for 3 Doors Down)!
JUSTIN BILTONEN
Justin Biltonen is a Country Artist and Singer Songwriter from Arden,
North Carolina. Growing up in the heyday of classic 90’s Country sparked
his passion for music. Like many artists, he started playing guitar and
singing in church worship groups in high school, however in 2004, fired by
rebellious excitement, he began touring the country playing southern fried
Rock n’ Roll. During those late night van drives, that wandered endlessly
down lonesome highways, he reignited his passion for Country music. It
was bands like Drive By Truckers, Waylon and Shooter Jennings, Brooks
and Dunn, Shenandoah and countless other Country artists (all conjured
from the soundtrack of his youth), that kept him company on those long
drives. It was also during this time Justin began frequent trips to Nashville,
Tennessee and fell in love with the music and positive atmosphere within
the city’s music community. Learning the ways of Nashville songwriting
began an inspiring journey into the professional music world. In 2013
Justin made the move to Nashville and joined the band 3 Doors Down as
the bands bass player and began touring the world in support of
numerous chart topping albums. The band’s latest release titled “Us And
The Night”, which peaked at #2 on the Billboard Rock Charts, was the first
major release Justin wrote and performed on.
In 2018 encouraged by friends, family and fellow songwriters, Justin
debuted two songs under his own name. The first two songs “Use You”
and “How A Man’s Made” mark a brave chapter in Justin’s musical
journey. Driven by a creative calling to make music, Justin quickly
released a follow up single in October of the same year. His third single
titled “She’s Got The Highway” was released on digital platforms and for
the first time, several terrestrial radio markets.
With two more singles set to be released, numerous live appearances at
Broadway honky-tonks and beyond and a rapidly growing fanbase, 2019
is shaping up to be a breakout year for the young Country artist.
