Brand New Ballad from Justin Peter Kinkel-Shuster

I know it may not seem like it down here in Texas, but there’s winter just around the corner, ready for the perfect fireplace listening experiences. I think I’ll end up having a lot of this JPKS spinning during those fireside chats with my old lady, as it already seems built for such times. Kindle-Shuster’s vocals are perfect, but I love the intimacy of his playing style; it almost sits back in the mix, allowing the world around your speakers to fill in what space remains in the ether. You don’t want to sleep on Constant Stranger, which is being released by Big Legal Mess on September 30th.

Folk Ballad from Justin Peter Kinkel-Schuster

August 1, 2016 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Maybe it’s the fact that summer in Texas is sweltering hot, or maybe it’s just that time of year, but folk music has really been hitting the spot on the home stereo. That brings with it Interweb scouring, where I found this Justin Peter Kinkel-Schuster tune off his forthcoming record, Constant Stranger. There’s a fragility in his voice, especially the way he carries some of the notes; I always envision myself staring out the window on a long West Texas car drive during the instrumental moments. Looking forward to the full release on September 30th via Big Legal Mess.

Justin Peter Kinkel-Schuster Goes Solo

June 22, 2016 RayRay Leave a comment

Justin Peter Kinkel-Schuster has made a name for himself over the last several years as the primary songwriter, singer, and guitar player for indie rock band Water Liars. With all of his success as part of a band, Kinkel-Schuser has decided to step out on his own for a bit and take a shot at recording and performing as a solo musician. The first taste of his new material was offered up yesterday with this new single “Headed South”. It’s downright beautiful and features a sort of melancholic, yet sill somehow bright take on the songwriter genre.

Debut album Constant Stranger will drop on September via Big Legal Mess/Fat Possum. Pre-order here.
