(NEW YORK) August 14, 2008 – Nineteen year old Justin Nozuka will set out on his first U.S. headlining tour in support of his debut album, Holly (4/15, Glassnote/RED Distribution), on September 18th in Buffalo. The Gabe Dixon Band supports on the coast-to-coast, five-week run. See all dates below.
In addition to his tour, the Toronto, Canada native will be making his U.S. television debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live! (ABC – 12:05/11:05c) on Sept 16th.
The soulful singer-songwriter is also headlining a benefit concert at the Yoga Month Health And Wellness Festival, a nonpartisan health festival that kicks off the Democratic National Convention, on August 24th in Denver at City Park. The festival is the first of a series of national events geared towards inspiring a healthy and informed lifestyle.

Justin Nozuka’s steady rise to stardom caught the eye of footwear designer Steve Madden, and he recently hand picked Nozuka to be Steve Madden Music’s Artist Spotlight for September. Current featured artists include Katy Perry and Little Jackie, and you can find out more info about Steve Madden Music here: Steve Madden Music
Recorded while Nozuka was only seventeen, Holly received rave reviews across the board, with ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY dubbing Justin Nozuka as a “most promising male singer-songwriter,” and PEOPLE MAGAZINE urging “John Mayer should start looking over his shoulder: This 19-year-old impresses with the acoustic soul on his debut.” VH1 has also named Nozuka a “You Oughta Know – Artist On The Rise.”
On his first U.S. tour this past spring with Marie Digby and Eric Hutchinson, Nozuka’s video for “After Tonight” spent an impressive NINE weeks in a row as the #1 most played video on VH1, and even had a first look on MTV’s TRL. As “After Tonight” steadily climbs the HOT AC radio charts (he is currently #43*) and album/single sales continue to increase, Justin Nozuka is primed to conquer the U.S. as he has done in Canada, the U.K. and Europe.
