For video, and Johnson played guitar for good luck to him in one end of the bar dingy near Hollywood Tony Highlands and complex, while one of his fans guide the work of loopy for the cameras placed strategically - a fan named Matthew years ago McConaughey.Two at the Academy of Country Music Awards in Las Vegas, had flagged down Texas offender Johnson advertising behind the scenes, and begging for an introduction to the high breakaway country. I have since become friends, to the extent that McConaughey longtime girlfriend, Brazilian model Camilla Alves is designed, and brought Johnson and his band to play for her husband's surprise party 40 birthday gala last year.
"With a lot of artists," said McConaughey a few days after filming the video, "Art is one thing, and they last. [With Johnson] there was no separation between music and peace. Jamie does not lead, and he is just." For Johnson, " I do not think I could dream of anything better, "he said with a timid smile after wrapping the video shoot, giving him a few minutes free to relax on the sofa in at a tourist bus parked in the street next to the fact bar.In, some of the articles on" Guitar song "The effects of his life has changed in recent years, the transformation of this transformation songwriter struggling personal life is falling apart and to the music of award-Laden. "I never thought that you get to see inside the limousine," he sings in "riots, California," and who wrote to me with Thomas Miller. Now, however, it has been spending a lot of time in one, shuttling from a hotel of four-star to the other while he was attending to various aspects of the profession of prosperity is still one of the stars of new country music - a fact which he treated with great skepticism.
He get any argument from exec Global Music Group to Luke Lewis, who signed Johnson to divide the world in Nashville, Mercury after the release of the singer online only "that song and single" I got blared in the city of music hits on the nature of him.His After George Strait recorded " give away, "wrote a song Johnson with the singer veteran Bill Anderson, songwriters, friends, gun, which gave him the Strait of 41 No. 1 hit.Yet Johnson was still without a contract when he and his band, and I barely Playboys, began recording material that ended up on" those song and single. " And rejected two offers from labels that wanted him to re-record what you want to do before Lewis approached him.
"When I told Luke I do not mess with this sound, and repeated to him immediately: 'Hell, I came here to tell you that'. We enjoy what we do. Me and the band, we enjoy making music the way by making music today, and if not Therefore, I will not bother to do any of that. There is something else worth the trouble. "Lewis, who also runs a boutique Lost Highway label that released albums critically acclaimed and Williams and Sinda, Bingham Ryan Ryan Adams and many others, said:" I am a believer in freedom art, and I'm just trying to figure out ways to get this stuff in the market, which makes sense. "In Johnson, Ray Lewis," a prolific artist Incredibly, one who still shows no sign of slowing down. "
Johnson pressed to put out two CDs worth of 'new music from "those who have access to what we do", which is writing about real people grappling with real issues and a male voice singing them colored and this is often compared to that of Waylon Jennings. Johnson also contributed to the fierce independence Jennings, Willie Nelson and the prohibition of the country exhibited their brethren in the '70s "I subscribe to the famous quote from Willie Nelson: 'We're going to keep doing wrong so we like it this way," Johnson said. "We hardly ever things all the way the other says it's the way that should be done. Which works almost better for me, because I do not really [care] how you always have done, and if you want us to do it, and here How we do it. "
