Awesome adult rock CD! Pick up a copy today.
author: RadioIndy.com staff
"Authentic Memphis" is a very impressive adult rock CD, with strong musicianship, including vocals, strong songwriting, and pro production. We were so impressed by this CD, we named Wonderful Johnson our October 2006 band of the month. All of the tracks that we reviewed were very good. We especially enjoy the hook-filled songwriting and harmony-filled vocals in "Connection" and "17 Years Down." When listenting to this CD, bands like The Smitherines and The Bodines, come to mind, as well as solo artists such as Tom Petty. If you enjoy adult rock, you've got to pick up a copy of "Authentic Memphis."

Wow! What a catchy album. Every song is fabulous. Reminds me of an early Tom Petty in terms of the guitar and rhythm. A must have CD!

Tom Petty fans, DON'T miss this! If Americana, Roots rock or Alt. Country perks up your ears, then this certainly will. With the naked, tangible core of griity, humbled, honest rock curling around unforgettable melodies and supported by beats that will make your body happy, Wonderful Johnson leaves no doubt on the origins of their moniker (the first half, that is). Having caught the attention of some important ears, WJ is undoubtedly on its way to staking out its own, artistic territory in a big way.
