About Me

"Johanna Lefever's music is dreamy and sweet and conjures up innocent memories of sailing on the sunny open seas or perhaps one's first kiss. Her music has a simple and child like quality with a raw sound, with well developed vocals that give the music it's charm. Following the styles of folk music such as Nick Drake, Cat Stevens, or Simon and Garfunkel, the appeal lies in it's refreshing simplicity. The experience is as if the everyday troubles and thoughts that run through your mind get cleaned out by the music itself, leaving you just with the feeling of renewal. Lefever hails from Santa Cruz, California and has been building a loyal fan base in the community since 2005."Amy Obenski 2008-There are only so many ways that you can bring pleasure to yourself and others, in equal measure, being selfish and selfless, simultaneously. this is music for me. i play for myself, and for the people i love. -Johanna
