    "Shawn Johnson & the Foundation is one of the hardest working bands in the valley! The band members have been performing together for two years. They typically do several shows per week. They have very loyal fans, many of whom have memorized all their original songs and can be found dancing and singing along with the band!".. - AZ Band Watch...... "In addition to winning several awards locally, including 'The Edge 106.3 FM Locals Only Competition,' and being nominated in the Best Male Artist or Group category for the 2002 AIM Awards, SJF receives regular airplay on Phoenix Radio, including The Zone, 101.5 FM. Shawn Johnson & the Foundation has established a solid following in Tempe, AZ, and is currently expanding into new markets, including Tucson, Flagstaff, Denver, Los Angeles and San Diego... - Band Mecca...... "On ..Strength (Of an Honest Thought).., Shawn Johnson & The Foundation traverse musical styles easily from pop/rock, alternative, acoustic rock, ballads, to hip-hop. By utilizing all of these different musical styles Shawn has created an album that can appeal to a variety of music fans.".. - www.springbound.com...... "You must hear them for yourself. Shawn Johnson & the Foundation fills my 'good live music' fix. Their shows are always energetic and the pure emotion put into the music by the individual players results in an energy and sound so pure that it borders on religious proportions. This band is a must see for everybody.".. - Archive.org...... "Check these guys out now!! This is one of the hottest bands in the Phoenix area and could be coming to a city near you soon. Shawn Johnson is an amazing songwriter who puts his whole soul into his music. Hopefully we will be seeing more from this band very soon!!".. - Archive.org....
