Justus Tams

I grew up in a small New York town, my hands on a Costco piano while my mom hired the sweetest teacher to guide me. I was six, chasing melodies, that instrument a doorway. At night, when the world hushed, I’d play and sing to God, my songs spilling out, sometimes waking my parents. Those moments rooted me—God became my center, music my way of loving Him. As I got older, I was formed by electronic sounds like Zedd, Flume, and Daft Punk, beginning my production journey. But worship music pulled me deeper, where I felt God most. I don’t split music into sacred or secular. It’s all holy, a gift from God, pulsing in a concert venue or solemn in a church. Now in Dallas, I’m part of UPPERROOM, a church that’s become family. My latest project, Foolish Offering, came from Monday nights with my friend SarahBeth Smith, singing to God. Songs like Beautiful Innocence and Pearl of Great Price grew from those moments. I love mornings with coffee and friends, the kind where laughter spills as easily as the brew, where stories unravel over steaming mugs, and the warmth of connection feels like a quiet gift. Anyways, bios feel strange, but I’m here, living for Him and loving life.
