THE OFFICIAL BIOGRAPHY OF MISSY JOHNSON:
Worldwide following? Check. Unforgettable performance style? Check. Purple guitar? Check. Pink hair? Check. A night to remember? Indeed! Missy maintains a unique position within the rock spectrum with her dynamic vocal style. Her music refuses to be categorized. With influences widely ranging from Led Zeppelin to Rage Against the Machine, and Tool to Mariah Carey, many have tried to place the sound. "A fine blend of Joplin and Aerosmith, with a touch of Zep," reads the Bedford Journal. She has succeeded in her mission to both baffle and intrigue the listener.
In the tradition of rock greats, Aerosmith, Missy comes to us from New Hampshire by way of Boston. Since graduating from the Berklee College of Music, she has been hard at work, writing material for others, as well as herself. After refining her talent in several of her own groups, such as Specimen 37 and The Late November Project, she took her songwriting skills and poured them into her first solo project.
Her EP, "Noise To Keep", was released in 2005. The songs developed themselves over many performances and showcases, including the NY International Music Festival, and appearances at Boston's Middle East. Missy hand picked a group of superior local studio musicians to record the instrumental tracks. Los Angeles provided the inspiration for the final production. After many sessions with up-and-coming songwriter, Oren Hadar, she decided to finish recording with producer, mentor, and friend, Terry Becker (Kansas, Bonnie Raitt). Vocals were laid down at LA's Ultratone Studios. The album was engineered by Becker and studio owner, Johnny Lee Schell.
Missy began her live music journey with a full band, playing esteemed venues such as CBGB & Pianos in NYC, Bill’s Bar in Boston, and many independent rock festivals including New York’s MEANYFest and San Diego’s Indie Music Fest. After several years of rotating backline musicians, Missy decided to pack her guitar and head out on the road alone. Her acoustic guitar skills and raw, fresh vocals earned her a following in venues all over the country including Eddie’s Attic in GA. Seeking new inspiration, she planted her heels in Nashville, TN and is currently writing songs for her full-length album debut.
She continues to regularly regale nationwide bar rooms with her enigmatic live show. Her music moves her audience from beginning to end with the raw strength of the ballads, the funky groove of the riffs, and the soulful vocals. She has even learned how to control the most unruly room with her charismatic persona. One listen to Missy's powerful style proves her goal of world domination is not unattainable. Her sound is a reality.
