While INEQUALITY BLVD offers a stinging critique of the social and economic realities that result from vested interests, market forces, and short-term politic thinking, the album walks a tender path introducing listeners to an array of characters all struggling to stay afloat in an increasingly, blindly narcissistic and dangerous world.
Art, music, and culture have always offered a poignant mirror of the times. Dave Johnson has long believed in the power of music to shift the status quo into a kinder, fairer society. INEQUALITY BLVD will help us all take a long, hard look into that mirror.

After the Fling, Dave released his first solo album, 'Leaving Time'. Buy Here https://davejohnson2.bandcamp.com/album/leaving-time  A timeless and achingly beautiful collection of songs deeply rooted in old school country/folk but with subtle electro and multi cultural influences. Dave went on to tour this album through Europe with fellow troubadour, Carus Thompson.

Dave 2nd Album On A Clear Day, Buy Here- https://davejohnson2.bandcamp.com/album/on-a-clear-day  shows Johnson sweeping all of the clichés of mass-produced music under the rug and tapping into everything that makes genuine country/folk music unique and beautiful: raw emotion, deep groove and clever storytelling.

Dave then took a bit of a back step from gigging and touring, found himself a comfy job doing FOH sound engineering at one of Freo’s favourite live music venues- Clancy’s Fish Pub. During this time Dave started up a choir/singing group at the local homeless shelter, which later became the much loved Starlight Hotel Choir. He also found himself teaching music at a Juvenile Detention Centre to some of the most troubled and traumatised kids in the state. It was from these later two experiences that his 3rd album started writing itself.

His 3rd and soon to be released album- INEQUALITY BLVD, as the name suggests, is a stark critique of the morally devoid, politically polarising, policy gridlock induced by vested interests, market forces and short term politic that is gripping most of the modern world. The album is tender and brimming with characters who are struggling to stay afloat in an increasingly, blindly narcissistic
and dangerous world. Buy here- https://davejohnson2.bandcamp.com/album/inequality-blvd

Dave is a true believer in the power of music and the potential for the emotive combination of words and music to shift the status quo into a kinder, fairer society.
