‘Time Ran Out’ is the debut single for Gusty, the latest project for designer and creative director Justin Smith, who’s been at the forefront of such bands as The Inside. Recently signed to Dowd Records, the artist has a deep love of hip-hop, indie, and British music, and has been writing his own material in anticipation of finding the perfect collaborator. That he has, in the form of Jon Sortland – a name regular readers of EP will no doubt be familiar with by now – of The Shins, and TLA. Sortland is a longtime friend of Smith’s, and was enlisted to record and produce the single.
