你很难将Justin Rutledge与其他唱作型艺人去做比较，虽有相同点，但你难说出Justin Rutledge为了什么会这么的出色，歌声优雅无比，旋律柔和动听。基本上很难挑出毛病来，也可能是我太看重Justin Rutledge的原因，从MYSPACE上面听到他的歌声后，就花了很长时间去拖这第三张专辑《Man descending》。Justin Rutledge出生于1978年的加拿大多伦多市，现在正逢成熟年龄，音乐的思想多发时期。06年的冬天Justin Rutledge被评为“Best Singer/Wongwriter in Toronto”。这绝对是一个不小的荣誉，对于Justin Rutledge也是最心满意足的荣誉之一吧，得到自己家乡的认可，对于他来说，是一件重要的事情。其中歌词这方面是最被推崇的。对于写词这方面Justin Rutledge应该算是非常拿手了，因为在上大学时期，Justin Rutledge就是文学杂志的编辑。所以专辑中的歌曲充满了苦甜干涩各种味道，这点和许多艺人一样，浓厚的生活作品。我是无法割舍这样的音乐，不论来多少，我都会一一聆听。已经不小的年龄让我开始真正的去体会生活，体验生活，还有享受生活，虽然我也不是成熟的大叔，但是也需要充实的生活，五光十色的生活。不论是甜是苦，因为这就是生活。很显然，那一对有型粗鬓角也是Justin Rutledge的生活之一。
An Alt-Country singer/songwriter from Toronto, Justin Rutledge (born 1978) earned critical praise for his literate, rootsy sound. Signed to Six Shooter records, Rutledge released his debut album, No Never Alone, to UK critical applause in 2005. The former editor-in-chief of a literary journal soon found his star rising in Canada, where he was named singer/songwriter of the year in Toronto's Now Magazine. In 2006, Rutledge released his follow-up to No Never Alone, entitled The Devil On A Bench In Stanley Park. Once again, Rutledge's work won critical praise, and in 2008, Rutledge won himself a nomination for his music at that year's Juno Awards ceremony.
