HI, I’m Chas Justus.

I make music, gather collaborators, and help ideas come to life—whether it’s a record, a show, or something totally new.

Music
Lafayette is sometimes called “a city with ten musicians and 1000 bands.” I’m in my fair share of them. I also create music for films and businesses and can help if you need live music for a special event.

Producing
Making records, crafting a message, tying creative threads together. Learn about some projects I’ve produced and some shows I’ve hosted.

Blackpot Camp
From Loreauville and London, musicians and culture lovers find their way to Eunice, Louisiana.
My favorite week of the year.
Education
I’ve taught at music camps across the country and internationally, I’m currently an instructor in UL Lafayette’s traditional music department, and I do private lessons.
