About

JOHNNYSWIM IN CONCERT:

For nearly a decade, Nashville-based folk and blues duo Johnnyswim has been captivating concertgoers with their bluegrass-influenced guitar strumming, soulful harmonica riffs, and pitch-perfect harmonies. At their live shows the pair deliver their boot-stomping tracks with plenty of energy and starry-eyed wonder, making for a feel-good concert experience that's sure to please. From the driving beat of "Home" to the soaring vocal interplay of "Diamonds", Johnnyswim treats fans to a vibrant and dynamic live show that perfectly matches the exuberance of their stirring sound.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Johnnyswim was formed in Nashville in 2005 by singer Amanda Sudano and singer-songwriter Abner Ramirez. Sudano boasts a first-rate musical pedigree -- the daughter of disco icon Donna Summer, she grew up touring the world with her mother as a backup singer. She began working with Ramirez after attending a songwriter seminar he hosted in 2005, and the rest is history. They released their self-titled debut EP in 2008, and in 2009 they got married. Following a tour in India that benefitted orphan children, Johnnyswim released the 2012 EP Home, Vol. 1, which they supported with appearances on The Tonight Show and the radio variety program A Prairie Home Companion. In 2014 Johnnyswim released their debut full-length Diamonds, a stellar collection of tunes that has fans eager to catch them on their upcoming tour dates.

    Johnnyswim were great performers to see at this fairly small venue. Music made my hair stand up on end. I would go again in a heartbeat.

    AMAZING!

    by Shreya on 7/2/14The Sinclair - Cambridge

    This was one of the best concerts I've ever been to- these two are amazing! I love their albums, but the live experience was infinitely better. Their voices blend together so beautifully and many of the songs were remixed somewhat from the album. Loved hearing their stories behind the songs too. Incredible concert.

    Johnnyswim is the band to see!

    by Anonymous on 6/28/14The Sinclair - Cambridge

    The lead singers are so talented, and their passion for their art and each other is so apparent. They blended so well together. They began the show with the two lead singers (the male with an acoustic guitar), an electric guitar, bass, and drums. Throughout the set list, the two singers sang multiple songs with just an acoustic guitar. This created a great atmosphere in the venue. They explained the meanings behind a few of their songs, which is always fun to learn. They just wanted to the crowd to have a good time, and really appreciated the energy from the audience. Overall, I was so impressed with Johnnyswim's live performance. They sounded just as good as they do on their album. They have such a unique sound and really can capture the audience, which is rare nowadays.

    their voices blend so well together! I like upbeat songs but even during the slow songs I didn't mind just swaying and listening to their harmonies

    Pure Magic

    by megsull84 on 6/27/14The Sinclair - Cambridge

    Watching these two perform together is one of the greatest pleasures of my life. Their love for each other and for their music just radiates throughout the room. You will be moved! They keep it fun, too, cracking jokes and sharing stories of their journey. They are also extremely humble and grateful to their fans, if you get a chance to chat with them, you feel like you're talking to old friends.

    Johnnyswim was amazing!

    by lkc604 on 6/27/14The Sinclair - Cambridge

    The Sinclair is a simple but great place for the show. Easy to find and friendly staff. It's easy to get around inside even once the show is in full swing. Johnnyswim was awesome. They connected with the crowd and it was one of the best shows I've been to ever! Thank you Johnnyswim and the Sinclair!

    Johnnyswim @ the Sinclair - Outstanding!

    by Weymouth58 on 6/27/14The Sinclair - Cambridge

    This was an incredible evening of beautiful music all around. Amanda and Abner's songwritting is layered, rich and undeniably intelligent! Added bonus is that they are simply beautiful to watch and listen too. In the current day and age when there is so much out there that isn't worth listening to, I was happy and humbled to see the room so full of people just loving what they were seeing and hearing. Big hopes for their future in the mainstream, they deserve all the success the music industry has to offer and then some!

    Great music & great laughs too!

    by P8RIOT on 6/3/14Triple Door - Seattle

    Although it was just under an hour and 30 mins. They (Abner & Amanda) were joking w/ the crowd. The Triple Door was a very nice, clean and cozy venue. Easy to get to from I-5 and there was a parking garage right next door. Which by the way was free for me because I rode my Harley and it didn't detect my bike so I had to call and have the gate raised to get in and out. A great night of music, laughs, free parking and a great ride home. I'm a rock/metal guy and that's the majority of shows I go to. This was the first non rock/metal show I've ever been to. I'll definitely see them again. I do prefer the smaller venues in downtown Seattle like this one.
