Everything is better with music………
Creating & sharing music
Hi! I’m Justin! I’m a full-time musician, piano teacher and videographer based in the NSW Northern Rivers Region of Australia. Being creative is a passion of mine and has taken me all over the world, playing and teaching music as I explored America, Singapore, Brazil and finally Australia.
Since 2020 I’ve been shooting videos for Humane Yoga and The Northern Rivers Conservatorium. Videography is a new and exciting creative outlet for me. I have always loved film. The way sound and visuals come together to tell a story is so intriguing and powerful to me. It felt like a natural progression to incorporate videography into my creative career.
My most recent endeavor is bringing music to Early Childcare and Education centers. By using recorded music to guide the class, my students get to develop their hand eye coordination, cognitive functions, social skills and much more while having fun with music!
During the week I teach piano at The Northern Rivers Conservatorium in Lismore. There I’m privileged to work with some very talented and lovely humans.
On the weekend you’ll often find me performing gigs with “Living In the 70’s” or other local bands. Just click the ‘Read My Story’ button to find out more!
How I bring music to you………
Early Childhood Music Program
I offer music programs specifically for Early Childhood Education Centres. Incorporating music in early learning enhances brain development and supports overall intellectual growth. It engages children’s memory, attention and language skills. By using singing, dancing and percussion instruments kids get to explore music in a fun and interactive way.

Videography

Session musician
One of the things I love the most about working in the music industry is contributing, collaborating and brainstorming with fellow musicians on projects, large or small. Whether you’re just starting out, or are an experienced professional, I’m available to play, record and perform piano and keyboard, with or without vocals. Just click the ‘Session Musician’ button below to start a conversation about working together.
Teaching & performing
Sharing, playing and performing music is what keeps me growing, learning and developing as a musician. I currently teach piano, with my students ranging in age from 6-years-old to 70-years-old. You can find out more about piano lessons with me by heading to the ‘Private music lessons’ page. When I’m not writing, producing or teaching music, I play keyboard with the ‘Living in the 70s’ band and other groups. Just click the link below to read more about some of my gigs.
