This song was written for my friend Ernest, who was shot and killed in D.C. in April 2022. While I was writing it, both the Buffalo and Uvalde mass shootings happened. This song is dedicated to my friend Ernest, and to all victims and their families, of gun violence.

He blends his sound from influences like Pearl Jam, Dave Matthews Band, Ben Harper, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, Neil Young and more. 

Justin came onto the DC scene in 2007 and formed Green River Junction in 2009 with percussionist Rich Cairns. He developed his own songs and style, playing solo in the DC bar scene and local venues with GRJ. He released his debut album, 'Campfire Party' in May of 2018, which featured 2 singles that broke into the top 20 of the Digital Radio Tracker rock charts.

Shapiro's follow-up album Away In Your Dreams was released in May, 2020, during the Coronavirus lockdowns. Now residing in Tequesta, Florida, you can catch Justin around South Florida, jammin' at the Tiki Bars, or anywhere along the water!
