Kim D. Johnson is an Americana folk songwriter whose music is as honest and unvarnished as the landscape he calls home. His songs are not polished Nashville productions but rather dusty, character-driven stories of real people and real struggles, echoing the quiet truths found along the backroads and the long, straight highways of the Midwest.

 

With a sound built on a simple acoustic foundation, Johnson's artistry lies in his narrative depth. His lyrics paint vivid scenes of working-class life, where hope and hardship often go hand-in-hand. In his songs, you'll find characters grappling with regret, seeking second chances, and learning the hard-won lessons that can only be found on life's wilder rides.

Johnson's narrative style is a timeless folk tradition, but his voice is distinctly his own. He is a keen observer of the human condition, with an empathetic eye for the lonely souls and quiet heroes of small-town life.
