Justin Levine
Artist Description
Although a Joe's Pub regular, for the first time ever Justin Levine
will dedicate an evening to his music inspired by the life of Madam
C.J. Walker, the first African American millionaire, as well as take us
on a jazz-fueled romp into the madness of Guy Fawkes and the Gunpowder
Plot. Justin is inspired by the unsung stories of history, be they
stories of triumph or of terror, and exploring the musical life of these
people and events. With his rousing band (led by the inimitable Charlie
Rosen) and incredible guest singers, Justin runs through the gambit of
musical styles, ranging from Jazz to Rock to Gospel to the Blues and
more. As a composer, music director, performer and orchestrator, Justin
has collaborated with David Byrne, Doug Elkins, Alex Timbers, Michael
Friedman, Trip Cullman, Ted Sperling, Liz Swados, Lila Downs, Salty
Brine to name a few, and is currently working at MTC, Roundabout, The
Public and Naked Angels. He lives in Brooklyn.
