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.
