Featured artist this week – BILL JOHNSON www.billjohnsonblues.com

Singer, songwriter, guitarist, harmonicist and music educator Bill Johnson was born in Halifax, spent a few years in Ottawa and Calgary and now lives in Victoria B.C.. He grew up listening to his older brother’s record collection of Blues, Rock and Country artists and lists Hank Willilams, Elvis Presley, The Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton and Chuck Berry as his major influences. Bill spent most of his teens studying guitar and played in a variety of different bands through the ’70’s and ’80’s but by the early ’90’s he began to focus exclusively on the Blues. He’s released four albums since then including his new one – “Cold Outside”. Over the years Bill has won a Blewzy Award and been nominated for a Juno and 4 Maple Blues Awards. Tune in to find out why!
