Doug Jayne has been a fan of Freedy Johnston for a long time. Johnston's breakthrough album on Bar None Records was 1992's Can You Fly.
Johnston then signed to Elektra Records and in 1994 worked with producer Butch Vig on his biggest record, This Perfect World. This album featured the radio hit “Bad Reputation,” which earned him Rolling Stone's Songwriter of the Year award for 1994. His songs were featured in the movies “Kingpin”, “Kicking and Screaming,” and “Heavy.”Freedy Johnston is performing Saturday, March 5, at The Lost Church in Santa Rosa.
Doug Jayne is excited to be the opening act!
