DESCRIPTION:
Justin Furstenfeld is the creative force behind Blue October, a multi-platinum band that has sold millions of albums and singles worldwide and garnered over a billion streams. Known for his poetic storytelling and emotional depth, Furstenfeld has written and recorded over 18 Top 40 hits, earning critical acclaim and a dedicated global following. Over the course of his career, he has recorded 16 studio albums: 13 with Blue October, 2 solo, and 1 with Harvard of the South, as well as two concert films, Argue With A Tree and Things We Do At Night and a documentary; Get Back Up. ​

From the beginning, Furstenfeld set Blue October apart with their emotionally raw and introspective sound. Initially drawing inspiration from bands like The Cure and Radiohead, he wove deeply personal themes of love, loss, addiction, and redemption into his songwriting, creating anthemic yet intimate tracks that fans describe as “shimmering rock songs with haunting lyrics.” His live performances are often described as arm hair-raising, as they channel unfiltered emotion and forge an unparalleled connection with audiences. ​​

Furstenfeld’s life story is one of transformation. Once grappling with addiction and mental health struggles, he has emerged as a vocal advocate for sobriety and emotional well-being. His journey is chronicled in the acclaimed 2020 documentary Get Back Up, which provides an unflinching look at his struggles and triumphs. Through honesty and vulnerability, Furstenfeld has inspired countless fans by proving that change is not only possible but life-changing. ​

For the past 15 years, Furstenfeld’s one-man shows, Open Book, have been celebrated for their transformative, heartfelt experiences. These performances combine acoustic renditions with deeply personal storytelling, offering fans an immersive look into his music and life. His reality-focused, unfiltered writing addresses the darker corners of life while finding hope and beauty, breaking down barriers between artist and audience. His new one-man show, I Laugh At Myself,” focuses on his continuing journey from 2013 to the present, showcasing his ongoing transformation and dedication to becoming the best version of himself each day. ​

In 2024, Furstenfeld expanded his artistic expression by launching his lifestyle brand, “Furstenfeld,” and personally crafting four unique parfums. Each fragrance embodies his signature emotional depth and storytelling, offering a sensory experience that mirrors the raw power of his music. The brand, described as “a symphony for the senses,” is available at www.furstenfeld.com, inviting fans to step into an evocative new world that blends music and perfumery.
