Release Notes:

A low key Leonard Cohen intro builds into a Ray
Lamontagne styled offering of depth, aching heart
and a subtle, but swooning accompaniment for Down In
A Cold Dirty Well. Right from the start this 18 year
old Toronto raised soul-searcher, Justin Nozuka
endears himself to the listener with his gritty gut
wrenching reflection and dusty narrative. He tells
of the inner struggle that is within most of us.
Throughout this journey, an acoustic base is
embellished with soulful backing cooing and, at
times, some hollow exploration of both the
instrumental and vocal style. Be Back Soon captures
a dusty blues vibe that many thought was lost a long
time ago. Desperation and hopelessness are not
themes that you would look for from a
whippersnapperÆs collection of material, but here it
is delivered with authenticity and bite. The guitar
element is almost like a ripple though the album
that highlights the ups and downs of one of lifeÆs
thinkers.

The strength of emotion on display is borne out by
the ability to sing as though you are clinging onto
a rock above a fatal drop into oblivion, through
Supposed To Grow Old. It is almost as though Justin
is saying donÆt worry about the dejection and
reflection, as he imbues some uplifting soul and a
positive, restful nature takes over for IÆm In
Peace. However, the talking point of the album is
the nettle grappling ballad Save Him that fearlessly
and poignantly takes on the volatile topic of
spousal abuse. Slow hushing sounds open the book on
a murderous tale that starts off as a fairytale,
before the tone and tale turn bitter and chilling;

She is begging please; donÆt end my life youÆre all
IÆll ever need.

Haunting, uplifting, wistful, swooning and musically
crafted are all adjectives that need to be used, in
order to fully understand and appreciate this bold
and emotively straining debut album.
