Music has always been in the bloodstream of Justin Jesso. His great grandfather – the man, whose surname Justin chose as his moniker – was a popular bandleader in the Roaring Twenties, entertaining Chicago’s underworld with his piano skills at special request of the infamous Al Capone many times. Almost 100 years later, Justin Jesso, is a celebrated Artist and Songwriter, with over a billion streams for his collaborations with international pop greats such as Ricky Martin, Maluma, The Backstreet Boys, and Norwegian dance producer Kygo (co-writing and featuring on his global smash “Stargazing”).

Maluma)” as well as writing singles for young up and comers like AJ Mitchell, HRVY, K-pop acts like Shinee and Red Velvet, and seasoned veteran acts like the Backstreet Boys, Armin Van Buren, Madcon, And Aloe Blacc to name a few.
