POM 38 Get Him Johnny "Wicked"

from Podcast Open Mic · host WMPG

Get Him Johnny is powered by the ardent duo, Megan & Paul. A couple that has been together for 20+ years, they’ve only begun playing music together in the last three. Their songs can be described as a juxtaposition of simple and complex, with a lyric-centric core. Lyrics and melody drive the simple chord structure behind most of their songs. If you ask Paul what the most important thing to pay attention to while listening, he’ll say “listen to the words, listen to the sounds those words make, absorb the meaning behind them”. Songwriters that sowed the seeds of creativity for GHJ include: David Byrne, Kurt Cobain, Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, Thom Yorke, Tom Waits, among many other favorites. Their musical thrust consists of acoustic guitar and ukulele, but you’ll also hear mandolin, bass, harmonica, cajon, keyboard, kazoo, and even some spoons in the mix. GHJ’s two self-released albums, Splinters & Stumps, and Standing Near Moss were mixed and mastered by Paul in their home studio. Get Him Johnny can be listened to and purchased at Apple Music, ITunes, Spotify, Soundcloud, Bandcamp and on their website at www.gethimjohnny.com. You can watch them play on Youtube and Facebook.
