Cartoon Johnny is an energetic vocal band that pushes the limits of traditional a cappella. Drawing on influences from classic soul to modern alternative, they've crafted an exciting sound that is often mistaken for an instrumental band - but it's all vocal.
Cartoon Johnny first hit the DC-area in 2001 under the name 3 guys mike. That's right. Numbers and lowercase letters. They were cool like dat. It was only guys in the group back then too. But after about a year of good work, the group lost two of the original Mikes. They replaced one with a female singer, and the other with another tenor. His name was not Mike. As the group's makeup changed, the name just didn't seem to fit anymore, and Cartoon Johnny (cool people sometimes call the group CJ for short) was born. Members have come and gone, and now we're 6 members strong rocking a venue near you.
Hope you guys are well....coming to Vegas? Naughty Boys Hypnosis Show is up and running 7 nights a week at the Harmon Theatre at Planet Hollywood...yup, your buddy Rolan is Headlining on the Strip!!
