Steph Johnson CD Release Party
Following the success of Steph Johnson's 2011 release, "Mysterious Feminine," winner of the San Diego Music Award for Best Jazz Album, Steph began to explore her sound further, uncovering a deep appreciation for guitar, voice and harmony. In 2015, she collaborated with Grammy Award winning producer, Kamau Kenyatta to record her latest album, "Music is Art." Nine soulful, accessible and evocative original compositions, plus "Human Race," a unique take on Wayne Shorter's classic "Night Dreamer." This performance promises to take the listener on a majestic journey that is both soothing and enlightening.
"....her core strength is as a communicator with rhythmic depth and smoky, pliant power...Johnson's sweet yearning vocal really soars...Highly recommended." Robert Bush/NBC
