Twisted Americana
with soul, wit, and grit.
I'd rather be alone - inside these prison walls
〰️
With the front door locked and the light on at the end of the hall
〰️
There’s a whole universe of love
〰️
In every world of hurt.
〰️
Wish I could eat just beans and rice/every day I’d eat the same meal twice
〰️

Get Music
“He’s the musical equivalent of a shotgun preacher with the armoury of a military junta. Johnny has been sent on mission to expand the sound of Americana.”
“Like some Dramamine-soaked response to Johnny Cash’s AMERICAN RECORDINGS, its stark, bleak tales of back-road behavior and questionable after-dinner practices immediately stuck themselves to the back of my head like fingernails across the wall of a falling elevator.”
