JOHNNY SIN
Rolling The Dice
Johnny Sin knows as well as anyone about gambleing on a music career.He started out doing open mic nights and street performances in madison, wi, back in 2003, doing what it took to get noticed in a crowded music scene.Then, in 2004 he rolled the dice on a treck to Las Vegas and spent a few months playing Black Jack... and winning! His next move was to return to Madison and take an even bigger gamble,starting his own label.After hiring some studio musicians,and Bradley Fish to handle production,Johnny sin recorded his 12 song debut disk, released on Johnny sin Records.Produced by Fish, with mixing and mastering by Mike Summerfeldt, the disk has already begun garnering airplay and strong responses in madison, Milwaukee and Chicago.
In fact, sometimes the response to Johnny sin's music generates something even more valuable then accolades-and that is "controversy" When a DJ named Lucas The Prince of Darkness began spinning Johnny sin on Wort 89.9 in Madison, he was forced to remove the track from rotation because some listeners deemed the lyrics offensive.Nobody likes to have a track pulled from the radio,but then again,the buzz from such a controversy is incredibly valuable.Another gamble another, another hand played by Johnny sin.
Johnny Sin is now ready to return to the table.Not content to tour regionally,he intends to take his sleazy- rock, raunchy and provocative style to radio stations and venues nationally. With his music available at cdbaby.com and other online retailers, and already a buzzworthy rep on his home turf, Johnny sin is playing a winning hand.
