Bio
What sets Steph Johnson apart from other "acts" is her undeniable stage presence. "She commands your attention because you just can't believe the voice, the nuance, the mood she sets in an instant"..."when Steph starts to sing, anyone within earshot literally stops in their tracks." (91x-XTRA FM, San Diego, Ca.) Steph's originals reflect strong influences of Jazz, Neo-Soul, R&B, and Funk.
More recently, Steph has been working on her new material which she will be recording with members of her own band as well as some of the original members of the late Ray Charles' Band. The full length CD will be released in February 2005. Quite a feat for an individual whose only been playing and performing for a year and a half.
With a voice that effortlessly soars between octaves, her original tonality and style is exposed. Only with ease does her commanding talent, personality, and smile take center stage at any venue, making it impossible to not listen.
