Money Killed Jonny
Folk rock, blues, soul, roots, Americana - original eclectic
Vintage craft and classic style, the essence of true hand made music after all the flashy effects have worn off.
Money Killed Jonny questions money and status and the social intent of holding these as our most important values.
“You know you’re never gonna sell that” an industry expert influencer commented with a self satisfied wry smile.
“Probably not” I replied. So I’m not. No hype, no clever marketing angle, no formula, just whatever falls out and makes us feel.
Could be fun could be wild, could be dark and moody, who knows? Pick what you like and take it with you.
