Musician

As a Singer/songwriter, Silas Johnson is striving to bring back an older sound to the new generation, drawing inspiration from many artists before his time.

This is, most likely, the result of growing up as the son of a jazz singer (Clay Johnson of The Fabulous Equinox Orchestra), who preferred older tunes to newer music on the radio.

His guitar playing is kindred to that of many melodic guitarists, such as David Gilmour from Pink Floyd and Gary Rossington from Lynyrd Skynyrd, and his singer songwriter spirit is the result of growing up listening to stars like Billy Joel and Paul Simon.

With his effort to combine the sounds of classic rock with modern music, Johnson’s songs are truly one of a kind and are sure to leave the listener wanting more.
