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.
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.
