Get Your Dancing Shoes On
Johnny is as much Bolton as Trotters and Tripe . Johnny is a down-to-earth, friendly Lancashire lad with a Touch of Scouse, and is non-stop 100mph on stage. He sings hard with soul, passion and guts, which definitely places him apart from other singers on the circuit. He risks everything and asks for nothing in return. Honesty is one of Johnny's trademarks; he is like an open book, what you see is what you get.
โJohnny's show consists of songs from his influences of classic soul & Reggae songs, songs from Motown, Ric Tic Labels, Atlantic, Trojan Labels, and many songs from the Northern and Rare Soul & Reggae Scene by artistes such as James Brown, Bob Marley, The Pioneers, Toots and The Maytals, Al Green, Stevie Wonder, Eddie Holman, Jackie Wilson, Dean Parrish, Spyder Turner, The Temptations, Nolan Porter, Jimmy Radcliffe, Terry Callier, Ben E King, Gene Chandler, Edwin Starr and Many More Plus Original Songs
