Hailing from a small town called Laurel MD, LJR is a nostalgic alternative rock artist who strives to empower his audience to live their lives to the fullest. Seamlessly blending ‘80s-style pop beats with alternative rock guitar solos in a variety of genres, his music is anthemic and infectious while conveying remarkable vulnerability, speaking to the parts of your soul that yearn to heal and grow.

His debut album When the Sky Began to Fall serves as a testimony to the last decade of his life, detailing his evolution through insecurity, codependent relationships, and leaving faith. “I hope it brings deep healing and hope to people’s lives,” he shares about the album.
