The American/Canadian Nozuka started penning the songs that would appear on his debut album when he was just 15 years old. Now 21, he released his second full-length album, You I Wind Land and Sea, produced by Bill Bell (Jason Mraz, Tom Cochrane) on April 13th. The album features twelve great songs including the single “My Heart is Yours” and my favorite song, “Heartless,” which was written after Justin’s brother, Christian Bridges, brought him a melody that he described as “magical.” . . . → Read More: Just Some Good Ol’ Brown Eyed Soul: Justin Nozuka’s You I Wind Land and Sea

“Steer”, the third song on her latest album, On a Clear Night, not only showcases Missy’s musical prowess, it also reflects her respect for the environment. It was inspired by her visit to Broome, Australia while she was writing the album. The song definitely inspires listeners to take control of their lives and “step into the clear.”
Her environmental efforts span all the way back to her childhood in Australia. “As a kid, I was a Greenpeace follower and I was always conscious of saving water and electricity, so much so that I kind of drove my parents mad sometimes,” she says. Now, as an adult she has become one of the most environmentally friendly musicians in the music business – ranking number 9 on Billboard magazine’s ‘Green 10′ in 2008. . . . → Read More: Music Meets Earth: Missy Higgins Combines Her Talent for Music with Her Love for the Environment
