*John Mayer once wrote: "If you’re reading this (referring to his "Continuum" liner notes) with an instrument in your lap - get to work, and deep in it. We all need you" - that inspired me quite a bit also.

“Here’s a young man whose voice and guitar play will knock your socks off.”
Geoff Dellinger, Entertainment World
"He’s been playing to packed crowds around town, and now Justin’s creating a national following. And along with his notoriety, Klump’s songwriting keeps getting better."
KINK 101.9 fm, Portland, OR
"Acoustic guitar and heart-on-sleeve lyrics will make you wish you'd never stopped keeping that personal journal."
D. Parvaz, Seattle P.I.
“With his classical guitar background and simple and personal lyrics, Klump pens nice pop numbers that are catchy and deep. Klump's sound is familiar but at the same time, it's got a noticable distinction from the rest of the stuff you usually hear in the pop world.”
Matt Perez, Music Emissions
“Klump looks into people’s hearts and souls, and he manages to put some of the most conflicting feelings into words.”
Jennifer Layton, IndieMusic.com
“Six years is all that it’s taken for solo artist Justin Klump to master the acoustic guitar.”
Erin Thomas, The Daily Evergreen
"23 year-old singer-songwriter Justin Klump made some very wise investment choices as a very young man...obviously earning some artistic capital in the process. Like John Mayer, Hootie & the Blowfish and Dashboard Confessional, there's an intellectual maturity to his brand of radio-ready pop."
Alan Fark, Minor 7th Acoustic Guitar Magazine

So I was listening to kink for a while to hear the local spotlight, and we waited for a while then my dad called to find out when it was going to be on and they said in the next ten minutes so we kept listening...then we hear it was cancelled! Sad! Let me know when it will be on again!!! Hope you had fun at Top Shelf! You should come out more often!!!
hey, so how was dinner with your dad? kailyn and i decided to go to dairy queen... if you hadn't said anything about food we prolly wouldn't have skipped the senegal meeting... you're such a great example to us younger folk!
Hey Justin! Hope you had fun in Cabo. After you email those people, let me know what you find out. And I'll keep my ears open for any other options. Talk soon.

Hello How was you show.../??? I wanted to go but i had to work. I just got my own place so money tight.... but I am working on it ... Its snowing here I am in westLinn right now... up on the hill .... Its so crazy
yeah man, besides lack of cash dollars, my father has to have a serious heart operation and i had an exam that was scheduled for yesterday but got cancelled due to snow so we chose to kick it seattle style and study and stay nearish to my fam. school sucks. it's kicking my butt and keeping me too busy...stressing me out wayyy too much but you know...life. other than my family situation things are good! it's freezing in seattle but mini just started going outside w/ no leash...she doesn't run away anymore:) haha
