JusVon supplies terrific vocals in his performances nowadays. He is a blues vocalist of first class stature, in addition to being a foremost drummer and topnotch songwriter.
JusVon grew up in the city of Watts, California, where he began playing drums at the age of 3. He continued this gift by playing in church and at age 14 he had his first professional studio experience with Taj-Mahal.
From that experience, JusVon went on to play with Blues legends such as ZZ Hill, Smokey Wilson, Lee Shot Williams, Artie White, Tyrone Davis, Brenton Wood, Sun Seals, The Drifters, Percy Sledge, The Platters, Walter Cook and The Sweet Singing Cavaliers and many more. He has toured internationally with Otis Clay and Zora Young. While on tour, JusVon performed background music for television shows in Europe and Japan.
JusVon is now a highly sought-after Blues vocalist preparing for a national tour. His vocal influences are a cross between Otis Redding, Buddy Ace and Wilson Pickett. Just as these Artists had experienced, so are the many experiences that JusVon has encountered in his life and he just wants to share his passion with the World.
JusVon is a recording artist for Parliament Records, working side by side with Mr. Benny and Lenny Weisman, writers/producers for Parliament Records.
JusVon has plans to continue his writing and co-writing songs with/for some of the world's leading producers and vocalists. His live performances are always well received by audiences everywhere - he has something to which everyone can relate.
JusVon stamps his signature on his songs in a seasoned, self-assured, world-weary voice that shines forth like crystal. At times he can be mellow and smooth in the voice of Junior Parker, gritty and spontaneous as the voice of Wilson Pickett, or as warm and paternal as the voice of Solomon Burke.
What others say --
- Otis Clay
"JusVon is the one who's going to carry the torch for the next 30 to 40 years. He is the next Tyrone Davis, Otis Clay, Wilson Pickett and Johnny Taylor. He's doing a noble
task, he is the future. We that are still here, have peaked and maintained. JusVon is the next statesman, going from Entertainer to Artist, making people feel better from when they came in 'til when they leave."
- Tina Mayfield
"JusVon is such a splendid singer, terrific and out of sight. I am so pleased to hear his music. JusVon can carry the America Blues music to the sky. This man is going places. His character is wonderful and his personality and mannerisms are humble. These will take him places. The doors have already been opened for him."
