Justin Niemi steps out with accessible songs about faith and relationships meant to engage and ultimately encourage the listener.

Professional bassist Justin Niemi got his start playing in the powerful Detroit-based alternative/indie rock trio Exit the Ordinary and quickly proved themselves a formidable musical presence, not just in the Motor City, but throughout the American Midwest, Eastern Seaboard, the South and eventually signed to INO/SRE Records based in Nashville, TN becoming label mates with the likes of Skillet, Flyleaf and MercyMe. After the band's separation, Justin started writing and recording his own songs which lead to his first solo project entitled Beneath The Surface (2019). Single "Keep On Moving" (2020) and newest single the Worship pop demo “Jesus Almighty” was released in May 2025.
