Justin Jenkins has been playing music since the age of six. He started out like most people playing in local talent contests and venues. His first “professional” music gig came about the age of twelve when he was asked to become a regular member of the Renfro Valley Barn Dance. He played there every Friday and Saturday night from 1998 to 2003. In the fall of 2003 he was a guest on the Grand Ole Opry with Mike Snider. In the Renfro Valley years he became good friends with another Renfro Valley member Steve Gulley. After high school he hit the road with Gulley’s band, Mountain Heart to sell merchandise where he got his first taste of the road life. After a year with Mountain Heart he met Blue Moon Rising and joined them full time in the spring of 2004. Justin made two albums with BMR “On The Rise” and “One Lonely Shadow.” With the success of BMR he has developed personal friendships with several of his musical heroes. Some of his heroes and influences include, Earl Scruggs, J.D. Crowe, Ron Stewart, Terry Baucom and Sammy Shelor, just to name a few. In early 2010 Justin will release his first solo album which is chalked full of his friends and heroes. The album includes the likes of Ron Stewart, Harold Nixon, Adam Steffey, Dan Tyminski, Keith Garrett, Chris West, Barry Abernathy, Steve Gulley, Rick Wasson, Dwight McCall, and Brian Rittenberry. When not playing music Justin works for his Dad’s company Top Gun Caulking and Waterproofing. He also enjoys hunting and fishing and farming in his spare time.
