J.D. Huggins - Head Full Of Monsters

Lightning 100: Hitmaker Alert

J.D. combines Southern blues and dirty alternative rock to create a unique sound that defines and embodies his life.  He was raised in the Appalachian Mountains in a small town in Georgia where he spent his time fishing, hunting, camping and teaching himself how to play the guitar. Born into a musical family, J.D. began songwriting at an early age taking influence from his surroundings. He moved to Nashville to front the southern rock band Heathen Sons who continued to release two full-length albums and an EP and received notoriety for their single “Temporary Queen” which was featured on the hit ABC show “Blood & Oil.” Before disbanding in 2019, the band was seen performing with acts including Nikki Lane, Jericho Woods, Whiskey Myers, Will Hoge, Leah Blevins and Goodbye June, as well as appearing at Whiskey Jam and SXSW.
