Album Notes

Music with meaning and passion, that is what drives the band members in Backup Johnny. They want to create not just music, but a story for fans to listen to. With their first show ever in November of \'07, they have gained a great fan base, both locally and out-of-town. They released their first album titled \"Heartaches & Hangovers\", this album first introduces the character called Johnny Ray and takes you through a 10-track journey of his live, love, and loss. The band has experienced great feedback from their fans about the album, leaving them wanting more!

\"This album is an electrified experience, the simple themes in the lyrics and the emotions displayed over incredible tracks. I know they are destined for greatness.\"-HardLabor Music

Backup Johnny went on their first tour in the summer of \'08, traveling up and down california, hitting major cities and spreading their music to new ears. They have also appeared in VERBICIDE MAGAZINE\'s UNSIGNED Issue Number 23 that came out in Spring of \'08, and earned a well deserved spot on the \"Top Four BEST UNSIGNED POP BANDS\".

\"It feels like rock but still maintains a pop sensibility in narrative storytelling.\"-VERBICIDE Magazine

They play with such heart and dedication to their music, and it shows in their performance, making them a must-see live band. They are heading back into the studio later this year for their 2nd album, then will book continously in-town and out-of-town in support of the album and their music. If you haven\'t heard them before, then you will hear of them soon. They are working endlessly to reach their goals of succes!
