   About Chad Johnson





It’s been six years now and Chad Johnson and Down 1450 are still around. With a new CD and new songs, they are ready to go to the next step. The live show is still their bread and butter, but they hope to really make some noise on the radio. With the support of their fans, the music keeps spreading and the live shows keep growing. It’s hard to make it in this business with so many bands out there, but this band really stands out in the crowd. They like their classic country which if you play in Texas is a must. They also like the new brand of country, Texas country, Americana, or whatever you want to call it. They have taken the two sounds and combined them to make their own style, and hope that people will catch on. They like to play to old dance halls, where people dance all night then ask for more. They enjoy the beer joints and taverns where people go to just listen and relax. For the real good times try a private party, you won’t be disappointed. Whenever you do get a chance to see them, say "hi” and you will find out why their fan base grows. Some of the nicest guys out there, and (just like you) they are looking for a good time. Check them out...You Won’t Be Sorry.. Over the last year or so, the band has had the opportunity to share the stage with such artists as: Kevin Fowler at Graham Central Station & Midnight Rodeo (Austin) Cross Canadian Ragweed at Graham Central Station & Midnight Rodeo (Lubbock) Aaron Watson at the Hub City Courtyard (Lubbock) Roger Creagor at Wild West (Lubbock) Charlie Robison at Midnight Rodeo (Lubbock) Bleu Edmondson at The Blue Light (Amarillo) Cory Morrow at The Ranch Jam (The Ranch in Midland) Reckless Kelly at Cabrito Cook-off (Lubbock) Mark David Manders at Bash’s & Blue Light (Lubbock) Randy Rogers at The Blue Light (Amarillo) Django Walker at the Blue Light (Lubbock) Cooder Graw at Wild West (Lubbock) plus Randy Rogers and Gary Allen at the Lubbock Coliseum for the 2005 KA Kalf Fry.

They’ve also played at:
Little Theatre on the Bay in Lakeside, Oregon
Golden Light in Amarillo
The Blue Light in Lubbock
