“After Tonight” recently cracked the Top 40 on the Hot AC radio charts at #40*, and is #36 on the iTunes Top Rock songs. The video is currently in rotation on mtv U, Music Choice and VH1, where it logged an impressive NINE weeks in a row as the #1 most played video, and even had a first look on MTV’s TRL. VH1 also named Nozuka a “You Oughta Know – Artist On The Rise.”

Recorded while he was only seventeen, Nozuka’s debut Holly received rave reviews across the board, with ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY dubbing Justin Nozuka as a “most promising male singer-songwriter,” and PEOPLE MAGAZINE urging “John Mayer should start looking over his shoulder: This 19-year-old impresses with the acoustic soul on his debut.”
