Noah Francis Johnson

Welsh singer songwriter Noah Francis Johnson plays his track 'For A Long Time' taken from his forthcoming 'Harvest Tree' EP out on October 22nd 2014 through Last Ten Records.

In the video, Johnson is performing a tender acoustic rendition of the song in an intimate live session, accompanied by a harmonica player. With a warm melody and heartfelt lyrics, the track is another deep look into Noah Francis Johnson's soul which he displayed remarkably well in his debut album 'Life & Times'.

Johnson has been inundated with praise from the likes of record producer Quincy Jones, as well as TV invitations from the BBC, and he's been asked to work on a forthcoming Ray Charles project. Earlier this year, he spoke to us about the release of his debut album, which he described as being 'inspired by my whole life to date'. As for meeting Quincy Jones, Johnson could only compare the experience to 'meeting God', and after working with Killing Joke's Geordie Walker, he was overwhelmed by a feeling of 'rock and roll'. 'He made the biggest impact on me', he admitted at the time. Johnson will be launching the new EP at KPH in London on October 22nd.

Cardiff-born singer Noah Francis Johnson unveils his rendition of Frank Sinatra favourite 'My Way' alongside a new video. Johnson released his debut album 'Life & Times' earlier this year which included another cover.

The video for the track is set in an isolated desert, with a smartly suited up Johnson crooning out the Sinatra smash hit with his own wonderfully soulful spin that builds up to a raw, power vocal climax. It is a remarkably appropriate track to cover for Johnson as it is reminiscent of something he told us in an interview with us back in February regarding another cover. 'There's a track called 'You're The One That I Want' and it's a Grease cover that I would sing for hours', he explains. 'When I got a little older, I was messing around with it; and I did it my way'.

As for doing it his way, Johnson is set to unveil a new EP later this year, hot on the heels of his 'Life & Times' album which he described as being 'inspired by my whole life to date'. He has a summer European tour coming up with several dates in the UK over June and July 2014.

Cardiff soul singer Noah Francis Johnson has released a scenic video for the title track of his upcoming debut album 'Life And Times', due to be released on February 24th 2014 through Last Ten Records Ltd.

The video features the brawny musician pushing what seems to be a broken down motorbike over some foggy hills and through a beach in what looks to be the British countryside. It's a moving acoustic track that may be slow and mellow, but is an uplifting offering all the same that lyrically sums up the autobiographical album.

Thanks to his entertainer father, Noah Francis Johnson has been performing all his life in between his boxing and dancing ventures. He has received an incredible amount of praise from various publications about 'Life & Times', which was recorded at both Abbey Road and Metropolis Studios, and was even applauded by record producing giant Quincy Jones.
