Weve been looking for a long time for our own concept of music and sound. And as you know, music is a crazy business, so you go one step forward and two steps back. But in the end its all about dreaming and believing in what you do. This is how Nadine Kraemer and Kolja Pfeiffer describe the development of JOHNA. The Cologne based Band toured throughout Europe, the US and Canada and they have been the opener to Lissie, Sharon Van Etten, Jennifer Rush, Nick Howard, Whitehorse Barclay James Harvest, Luxuslrm and Melanie Dekker to name a few.

With JOHNA, they both found their perfect match in music. With Nadine Kraemer as singer and songwriter, the band JOHNA has a heart for pop arrangements and catchy melodies that are reduced to its essentials. To give it a name, its melancholic pop. Each song is carried by Nadine's voice, which is characterized by personal commitment, a very emotional sound and a non-existing distance, since she is telling a bit of her own story in every song. JOHNA is authentic and handmade.

Its challenging music is perfect to lean back and relax" with a beautiful voice, where you can always find some of their musical influences, such as Sarah McLachlan, Rachel Yamagata or Jewel. "We love to play music and are eager to find people who enjoy what we do. This is our personal motivation and we are excited taking the next step on our way.
