One of DC's most revered singer/songwriters, Justin Jones, has released a video for the track "Christmas Night". This is the third video released from Justin's most recent full-length album Fading Light, and offers an intimate look into his home life.
A montage of candid moments between Justin and his family, this video captures the personal nature of the track. It is Justin's honesty and his ability to offer an uncensored look into his personal life that makes him such an effective storyteller, and this song/video is a great example of Justin as an overall artist.
Justin Jones "Christmas Night" video:
Fading Light, which Bob Boilen of NPR's 'All Songs Considered Blog' called "a powerfully magnificent americana album", was released earlier this year on 930 Records to much critical acclaim.
Even now, almost seven months after its release, Fading Light continues to win over a larger audience as Justin continues to tour relentlessly in support of the album. With Justin's signature gritty vocals over a diverse sonic soundscape that ranges from alt-country to full-blown rock, Fading Light has the ability to, as Bill Bodkin from Pop-Break put it, "remind you just how powerful the voice can be". You can purchase the album on iTunes, Amazon or any of your other favorite download services.
Justin has released two other videos so far from Fading Light ("Miracles" & "As It Turns Out"). He is also currently streaming the record in its entirety on his Soundcloud. A staple of the Washington D.C. club scene since 2002, Justin has toured with Sheryl Crow, Ray LaMontagne, K.D. Lang, Grace Potter & The Nocturnals, Drive-By Truckers and Badly Drawn Boy. He recently wrapped up a series of residencies throughout the eastern seaboard and midwest, as well as appearances at the Virgin Mobile Free Festival in Columbia, MD and the Austin City Limits Music Festival in Texas.
Justin still has several performances scheduled to close out the year, stay tuned to his website for more updates.
