My name is Johnny Unicorn. I heard the most successful bands are mismarketed. I do rock music. I spent some time in Los Angeles, then came to West Michigan to pursue a music career. Please contact me for booking.
Here's how some people have described the music:
"hes the illest the rillest and the freshest like whoa!!!! Cant touch his skillz ull get faded straight up FADEDDDDDD!!" - Dillon Thomas
"ELP meets Return to Forever."
"It's like YYZ and Talking Heads."
"It's like a mix between Dave Matthews Band and Primus."
"Phish and Nintendo"
"Oingo Boingo meets Faith No More"
Referring to 1-25-2005, "This is John in his element. This is John completely exploring John territory. It sounds like a mix between Phil Collins, Kenso, and Happy Family. I dig it!" - Jamie Grefe
Referring to Dates Or Non-dates, "Ben Folds, Genesis and the Beatles on a 10-day Tetris binge." - Revue magazine, April 2007
Those people, not surprisingly, were drunk.
