Welcome to EKA165! Today we are joined by Jus Rus, a singer/songwriter from Philly! Jus Rus is the solo project of Justin Russell. Justin and I have followed eachother on tiktok for a while and couldn't help that we basically had the exact same taste in music so once he had some new material to promote we had to have him on! We filmed this while Amanda and Catherine were in DC at Warped Tour so this is a classic solo dolo Robbisode. Justin and I talk about his musical influences and origins along with his journey so far as a musician. Along with this we talk Philly, Jersey, and all of our favorite bands from the area. The Gaslight Anthem, Jack Antanoff, Bruce Springsteen, The Menzingers, this was such a good time.
