Album Notes

Hailing from northwest Arkansas and now settled in Baltimore, Maryland, Kevin Johnson is one of the most distinctive singer/songwriters from the mid-Atlantic scene.

He is every bit as talented as the artists he admires--Townes van Zandt snd Marshall Crenshaw spring to mind; his work is easily on par with contemporary greats like Jeff Tweedy and Ryan Adams.

From Tom Petty to Springsteen to Hank Williams to alternative, Kevin Johnson draws influences into his songwriting that he makes utterly his own. It sounds like country, then like pure rock, laced with lyrics honest enough for the best of either.

Look Over There, at just 2 minutes, has THE BEST advice for a pending breakup whether you're the dumper or dumpee to be. Johnson's dancetastic melodies and memorable lyrics make for great sing-along music in the car, at home, or for cardio workouts.
