Canadian country music sensation, Brad Johner, continues on a roll with the release
of his sophomore solo album, Summertown Road, the follow-up to his very successful
and Juno-nominated solo debut Free. It is already showing signs of being another
huge success spawning two Top 10 songs and videos and is loaded with more surefire
future hits.
It's been a very busy year for Johner besides completing his album. Several high
profile performances this year, including the Queen's Gala and Canada Summer Games,
and an unremitting touring schedule from Victoria to Quebec City, has kept Johner
on the forefront of the Canadian Country music scene, a position he carved out over
a thriving decade-long career in Canada.
A successful run with brother Ken, as The Johner Brothers, led to four hit albums
before Brad turning solo in 2003. The industry has responded positively to the move,
recognizing Brad with a 2003 Western Canadian Music Award for "Outstanding Country
Album", 2003 CCMA nominations for "Album of the Year" and "SOCAN Song of the Year",
and a win at the 2004 Canadian Independent Music Awards for "Favourite Country Artist/Group".
He was also recognized with Juno and CCMA nominations in 2004
No surprise! Brad has always preached: "Take care of the music, and the music will
take care of you." For Brad it all starts with the song and it’s imperative that
he puts his heart, soul and voice into songs both he and his audience can relate
to.
On the live front, Brad is a veteran of the stage. His polished performance and
exceptional band culminate into a truly entertaining and memorable show.
Brad knows his audience and can adapt his show for any venue or crowd, enabling
him to reach a wide and diverse audience, and leave them enthusiastically satisfied.
When out on stage, with his band and his fans, he feels that he’s in the presence
of friends.
Married to his high school sweetheart since 1992, Brad and Rhea are not only tracking
Brad’s explosive solo career but are also kept very busy raising their five boys.
"My family keeps me grounded and focused. It’s all about balance and I think we've
found that." says Johner.
It looks like Brad is doing just fine out on his own!
