Johanna Samuels

Johanna Samuels shares the video for “Blue vs. Pinkerton”, the new single from “Sorry, Kid”. Built around a teenage debate over Weezer’s “Blue Album” and “Pinkerton”, the song grew from a prompt to capture a time and place; Samuels chose her high-school years. Recorded to tape with Jonathan Rado, the album lands August 14th.

Johanna Samuels’ ‘Excelsior!’ really comes into its own through the honesty with which she discusses isolation and vulnerability. While musically, she’s not attempting to break new ground she may help accomplish something far greater: a kinder world with more compassionate songwriting.

Johanna Samuels’ debut album Excelsior! is out digitally today on Basin Rock. Arguably leaving the best to last, she’s sharing the music video for album opener “Sonny”.

Mid-May sees the release of Johanna Samuels new album Excelsior!, an album that explores companionship and features a number of special guests. Watch her video for lead single ‘Nature’s Way’.
