Chanteur Country US né Justin Wayne Tubb, le 20 Août 1935 à San Antonio (Texas), Justin Tubb est le fils d'Ernest Tubb. Disc-Jockey au Tennessee, il signe avec Decca et se fait connaitre grâce à ses duos avec Goldie Hill. Il passe ensuite chez Starday et Groove. Excellent compositeur et bon vocaliste de Country / Honky Tonk, Justin s'inscrit en continuateur doué de la tradition familiale. Il est décédé le 24 Janvier 1998.
A fixture on
the Grand Ole Opry, singer/songwriter Justin Tubb, the eldest son of the
legendary Ernest Tubb, had a style all his
own; but for one duet version of "Blue Eyed Elaine" on Ernest's
1979 album The Legend and the Legacy, he always recorded independently of his
famous father.
Justin was born in San Antonio, Texas and spent most of his life in the Lone
Star State with his mother Elaine, who separated from Ernest in
1948. He got his professional start in local clubs during college, and
eventually moved to Nashville. At his father's suggestion, Tubb got a job
working as a DJ in Gallatin, Tennessee, where he occasionally performed some of
the songs he had written, and made his recording debut in 1953 with "Ooh-La-La."
Throughout the 1950s, Tubb recorded
steadily, but had only moderate success with his solo efforts. He did a little
better singing novelty duets with Goldie
Hill; in 1954, they reached the Top Five with their version of Jim Ed and Maxine
Brown's "Looking Back to See," followed by the Top 15 "Sure Fire Kisses." In
1955 he joined the Opry, and in 1956 he had his first solo success with the Top
Ten hit "I Gotta Go Get My Baby."
Tubb signed to Starday in the early '60s, released a few albums, and toured so
much that he was temporarily dropped from the Opry for not appearing often
enough. After 1963, he signed with RCA and released two duets with Lorene Mann,
including "We've Gone Too Far Again." He had one more minor hit with "But Wait
There's More," his last chart appearance. He continued to record, tour, and
appear on the Opry through the '70s. He also continued to write songs, and his
"Lonesome 7-7203" was a number one hit for Hawkshaw
Hawkins, while "Be Glad" became a major hit for Del
Reeves. Additionally, his "What's Wrong with the Way We're Doing It Now"
became a popular song with fans of the traditional country sound. Tubb also
wrote and recorded songs paying tribute to his father, including "Thanks,
Troubadour, Thanks" and "Just You and Me, Daddy." He died January 24, 1998.
