Vancouver-based country artist Justine Lynn continues her blues-country evolution with a funky, feel-good love song.
Vancouver-based country artist Justine Lynn is keeping the momentum going with her latest single, “High As You,” available now on all major streaming platforms.
Following the release of her gritty blues-country single “Roses,” the new track marks the second chapter in an exciting musical evolution for the South African-born singer-songwriter.
While “Roses” introduced listeners to a defiant, blues-driven sound, “High As You” takes a warmer, more playful approach, combining soulful vocals, funky grooves, and an irresistible singalong energy.
