JUSTIN BERGH’S THIRD ALBUM AVAILABLE TO DOWNLOAD
Cape Town, 8 June 2010: Justin Bergh’s long awaited third album Inside Out is now available in digital format on Nokia Music Store. Go too: www.music.nokia.co.za
This follows the release of the second single off the album, Miss America which was penned by Bryan Adams and Elliot Kennedy, who both gave him their personal blessing to make this up-tempo track his own. Justin is the support act for Bryan Adams on his South African tour in July 2010.
Inside Out is Justin’s first album since 2003 and is the result of several international writing trips to the UK and America where he collaborated with Luke Ebin (Bon Jovi), Peter Zizzo (Avril Lavigne and Celine Dion), Brian Howes (Daughtry and Puddle of Mud), Randy Cantor (Ricky Martin) and Saul Davies (James).
“As an artist I feel I have grown stronger creatively both in my writing and vocally and am satisfied that I have taken command and control of every song,” said Justin Bergh, “I am very confident that the album will be received well and I am proud of the result that has come from hard work, dedication and commitment.”
The first single Special made an impact on national radio and was used as the promotional theme for Showtime Cable Television in America. This was the first taste of what was to come; a fitting prelude to the much-anticipated release.
Justin’s debut album Love the Sinner in 2000 was followed up with 2003’s Out of My Hands, which earned him a nomination for Best Rock Album at the South African Music Awards. Both collections gave rise to several top hits among them Love the Sinner, No Ordinary World, Out of my Hands, Not A Day Goes By, Misunderstood and Here With You. This success brought on an opportunity for Justin to perform the South African national anthem in front of 82,000 rugby fans at Twickenham Stadium in 2007 before a test match between South Africa and England.
