Review – Bill Johnson
Album: Cold Outside
Release date: May 2016
Purchase
Genre: Blues/Folk and roots
Cold Outside was released by Bill Johnson in May 2016. The album is a creation of perfectly blended vocals that merge into the instrumentals like they were born together. You can hear the experience in Bill Johnson’s music. With new blues fans noticing Bills music and how it is meant to be….I have a feeling his 40 years of paid dues will be able to bring on a whole new professional outlook on the Canadian blues artists.
My favourite song on this album is “Free from my Troubles”, which explains the hard rollercoaster ride of getting rid of one problem and then another 10 popping up around the corner. And how you always wonder if the Devils trying to get you. When all you just want to be is free of all your troubles no matter where you go.
Also featured on this album, you will find performances from Rick Erickson, Darcy Phillips, Ross Hall, along with very special guests, Joby Baker, and David Vest.

Inspirational Interviewer and Promotional music lover for artists.
Born in Kingston, I grew up with the likes of Dan Akroyd and his blues influence and also The Tragically Hip, plus live shows downtown in the streets and country bands in the pubs.
I love music in all forms and genres. I can adapt my ear to enjoy and appreciate all instrumentals and vocals. I started writing about certain artists that I grew up listening to and then I reached out to artists for interviews. I have done over 20 interviews with artists and CEOs of industry companies from all over the world.
Now, with Canadian Beats I have an opportunity to improve my journalistic abilities and to get the word out there for artists, and best of all to go to shows and get that personal feeling. I get to represent Canadian music on a higher level. We need to open more doors and have more shows and venues, as well as get the world to come to us. That is my goal.
