Justin Wayne Tubb, born on August 20, 1935, in San Antonio, Texas, was a prominent American country music singer and songwriter. He was the eldest son of the legendary country singer Ernest Tubb. Justin began his career in music at a young age, performing on KGKL radio in San Angelo when he was just four years old and making his Grand Ole Opry debut at nine.

In 1954, Justin Tubb achieved success on the country charts with two duets with Goldie Hill, "Looking Back to See" and "Sure Fire Kisses." By the age of 20, he became the youngest male artist to be inducted into the Grand Ole Opry. Although he had several successful recordings, such as "I Gotta Go Get My Baby" and "Take a Letter Miss Gray," he was more renowned for his songwriting prowess. He wrote numerous hits for other artists, including "Keeping Up with the Joneses," "Love Is No Excuse," and "Lonesome 7-7203," the latter becoming a hit for Hawkshaw Hawkins. In total, six of his songs received awards.

Throughout the 1960s, Justin collaborated with his father on various business ventures, including co-owning the Ernest Tubb Record Shops. He continued to perform and tour, maintaining his presence on the Grand Ole Opry. Despite facing challenges in adapting to the evolving music scene, he remained a staunch advocate for traditional country music, notably with his song "What's Wrong With the Way That We're Doing It Now?"

Toward the end of his life, Justin completed an album of duets with his father, using pre-recorded tracks by Ernest. This album, "Just You and Me Daddy," was released posthumously in 1999. Justin Tubb passed away on January 24, 1998, in Goodlettsville, Tennessee, leaving behind a legacy as a talented musician and songwriter who made significant contributions to country music.
