EW likens Nozuka's music to that of acoustic soul musicians Gavin DeGraw and Citizen Cope. Check out his MySpace to hear songs and catch the music video below for his song "Criminal."
"Soulful" is a good adjective for his voice, especially considering he's only 19. And music apparently runs in the family. Justin's 22-year-old brother George is an R&B singer in Canada who has charted well on MuchMusic (Canada's answer to MTV). You can listen to his music on his MySpace. Check out the music video below for his song, "Last Time."

Clocking in at number 3 is Japanese/American Justin Nozuka who was born in New York but raised in Toronto, and is interestingly enough, nephew of American actress Kyra Sedgwick who's married to Kevin Bacon. Wow, six degrees of Kevin Bacon really does work.EW likens Nozuka's music to that of acoustic soul musicians Gavin DeGraw and Citizen Cope.
