About
Rooted in his guitar-driven compositions that explore life through the lens of his Christian faith, this Covenant Award-nominated singer/songwriter has engaged audiences for more than three decades. From the soaring electric solos of No Frontiers (1993) to the intimate acoustic arrangements of his Acoustic Hymns Project (2009), listeners have been captivated by his energetic and heartfelt performances. Johnny began his recording and touring career with the Vancouver-based band “Titus” in 1985, recording at Little Mountain Studios. He transplanted to the U.K. in 1988, where he recorded 5 CD’s for ICC Records before a change of career brought him back to Canada in 2000, where he applied his musical gifts leading songs of worship in his local church setting. Following the instrumental release “Acoustic Hymns Project” (2009), he has recently garnered GoFundMe support to record and release a new original work of his own compositions, a much-anticipated comeback album called Light Of Day, setting ancient creeds and texts of Scripture to musical styles that reflect the wide breadth of Johnny’s journey.
