![]() Justin Wells (from the album The United State available on Singular Recordings/Gokuhi Entertainment) Countrified blue-eyed Soul pours from “After the Fall” as Justin Wells, on his hands and knees, searches for a small piece of his own soul, and maybe a little dignity. The cut is on the recent release from Justin Wells, The United State, his vocal style wrapping around the melodies like a thick fog creeping across water. A percussive rumble carries cries for “Ruby” and a funky groove lays out dance steps for the promises in “It’ll All Work Out” as a Country backbeat coaxes confessions and admissions from “Temporary Blue”, all the songs guided by a honey-smooth charmer and Soul-sanctioned storyteller, Justin Wells. As a theme frameworking The United State, Justin Wells makes an audio roadmap for the human highway, soundtracking life from birth (“The Screaming Song”), through the freedom of youth (“No Time for a Broken Heart”), settling on the realization that we are all alone (“The Bridge”). The United Statecollects tales of sorrow and joy, hopes, pain, and fears, Justin Wells offering his vision of our shared existence, his voice rising up as inspirational cries and dropping like a falling-fast elevator as he follows ghosts across “The Distance from It All”.
