Justin Heming Brown Hornets

I was aware that Justin had been battling cancer but had lost contact with the Hornets over the summer. Recently in an email exchange with lead Danny Walters he relayed the news of Justin's passing. The Brown Hornets are on hiatus but there is a tribute gig October 15.

Justin Heming was one of the most soulful people I will ever meet in my life. We were best friends for 21 years. I played in my first band with Justin in 1987.
Justin loved all music as long as it had soul and spirit. From Kenny Rogers to Motorhead. Public Ememy to Elvis. Wilf Carter to Ike and Tina.
I can honestly say that Justin taught me how to listen to music.
Saying he will be missed is the biggest understatement I can make.

About Will McGuirk

  • Will_McGuirk
    • William McGuirk believes that Canadian music will not feed the world but it will provide moments of digestive relief. Tears are not enough but sometimes that's all we have. That we are not here for a long time so have a good time and support local artists. He has been yelling in the wilderness for 15 years. He needs a home and has been dewormed. He's got 6,000 years of Irish in him so don't believe a word of it.
