The Vinyl Stripes are a Texas-based band channeling the sound, style, and spirit of 1950s and ’60s America—rockabilly, early rock and roll, surf music, hot rods, and Sun Records swagger. Inspired by legends like Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison, Jerry Lee Lewis, Gene Vincent, and The Beatles, the band delivers an authentic vintage experience with high-energy modern appeal.

Sporting skinny ties, pork pie hats, Gretsch guitars, upright bass, and rockin’ drums, The Vinyl Stripes bring classic American music to life. Their repertoire blends rockabilly and early rock and roll favorites with surf guitar instrumentals, along with original songs that capture the era’s unmistakable sound.

The core trio—guitar, upright bass, and drums—features tight three-part harmonies, with select performances expanding to a four-piece lineup featuring tenor saxophone for added punch. The band has performed at concerts, festivals, swing dances, themed events, casinos, fundraisers, and private functions, and has opened for nationally known classic rock acts. Their original music has also been featured on television and in feature films.

From vintage rock and roll to California surf jams, audiences will definitely get real gone with The Vinyl Stripes.

Justin embarked on his musical journey at the tender age of 4, under the guidance of his father who introduced him to the guitar. Excited to learn, he eagerly awaited his father's return home each day, anticipating the next lesson.  

During his formative years, Justin assumed roles such as leading worship at children's church and participating in various school and church productions. As his musical prowess grew, so did his passion for songwriting and composing.

In his sophomore year of high school, Justin joined a local band and initiated open mic nights at Hanks Texas Grill in McKinney, TX. Over the years, he toured extensively across Texas and beyond with the band 121North, drawing inspiration from artists such as Chris Stapleton, John Mayer, and Vince Gill.

Feeling the urge to expand his musical horizons, Justin transitioned to become a harmony vocalist, co-writer, and co-producer at WarRoom Studios, contributing backup harmony vocals to numerous records. He also was a team leader with Nashville Christian Songwriters, a songwriting company out of Nashville, TN. Presently, he captivates audiences with both acoustic and full-band performances while continuing to craft original compositions.

Justin released his first single, "Lovin' Me" in 2024. He will release his newest song, "I Loved You First" either late 2024 or early 2025. "Lovin' Me" and "I Loved You First" will be part of a full length album that will be released in 2025.

Most recently, Justin was featured in Texas Lifestyle Magazine which can be found here: “Five Minutes with Justin Till: Heartstrings and Harmonies”

Beyond music, Justin enjoys pursuits such as lutherie, hunting, and hanging out with friends. He cherishes his family life with his beautiful wife, Lexi, and their two daughters, Lizzie Lee and Millie Mae.

Justin's aspiration is for his music, sincere and heartfelt, to resonate deeply with all who listen, touching their hearts, minds, and souls.
