Songs you know and love…with a twist...

Our Music:

We are a covers band based in Cornwall, and like to play songs in our own unique way.  For example, "Sweet Dreams" by the Eurythmics in a French cafe style, George Michael's "Careless Whisper" with a reggae arrangement, REM's "Losing My Religion" in a bossa nova style.  Audiences love what we do and always have a good time listening to us! Look for us on all social media. Our YouTube channel is here.

The Band:

Could ‘Blue River’ enhance your special celebration or function?  Note: we are not an all-out disco/party band for dancing into the wee small hours. We play our own versions of well known pop songs of different genres, most of which we’ve re-arranged in interesting ways with an emphasis on Latin percussion flavours.  Yes, we are amplified, but at comfortable levels. In short, we’re for listening and tapping your feet to, whilst still being able to hold a conversation with your friends!

If you’re interested in seeing or hearing us play, visit the ‘videos’ page, or simply click on the above ‘contact’ page link, send us a message, and we’ll get straight back to you, or email us at jmg@johnsongs.com
