About Me

Brandy Johnson is instantly recognizable for her distinctive voice, engaging and energetic stage persona, masterful guitar skills and resonant songwriting. Johnson delivers her astute and provocative observations with a voice which a columnist for indie-music.com rightfully described as "one of the sexiest voices I've had the pleasure of hearing. Ever. Lead singer Brandy Johnson has one of the strongest, smoothest voices I've heard in indie or commercial music." Brandy has received national attention and consistently glowing reviews from noted music industry media outlets including CMJ New Music Report, The Album Network, Female Musician, and All Star Radio as well as features in local publications such as The St. Louis Post Dispatch, The Riverfront Times, Alive Magazine and on the covers of Flush magazine and NoisyPaper.
Her music has been heard around the world on MTVs The Real World and Road Rules, VH1s Born to Diva, CW's One Tree Hill and CBS's Ghost Whisperer. Johnson's music has been nominated for numerous local and regional music awards, including "Best Singer/Songwriter" (along with Jay Fararr), "Best Pop Artist", and "Album of the Year" in The Riverfront Times and "Best Music Act" and "Best Unsigned Artist" in the Citysearch readers poll. Along with her bands, Johnson has received coveted invitations to participate in such noted music festivals/events as CMJ Music Festival, MRMF and the King Biscuit Blues Festival and has shared the stage with national artists such as Son Volt, Shelby Lynne, Gavin DeGraw, Guster, Hootie, Five for Fighting, Michelle Branch, The Fixx, Modern English and The Connells.
