Bio
The “Johnny Oliver Band” was formed in 2008. With over 20 years of experience, Johnny has composed over 170 original songs to date, and has just finished his third album in the past four years. In 2008, Johnny released his long overdue first album titled “The Reason”, and received two P.E.I. Music Nominations from this album for Male Vocalist and Country Recording of the year.
In 2009, Johnny released his second album “I’m Not Up For Sale”, and received a Nomination for Country Recording of the year. In addition, Moncton 96.9 featured “I’m Not Up For Sale” in a prelude to the first ever Cavendish Beach Music Festival performance, where Johnny appeared on the same bill, with Tim McGraw, Reba McIntyre, Big and Rich, and Aaron Lines. In 2010, “I’m Not Up For Sale” warranted Johnny another P.E.I. Music Nomination for Male Vocalist of the year. Johnny was the only returning P.E.I. Musician to perform at the Cavendish Beach Music Festival for the second year, again on the same bill as Lady Antebellum, Keith Urban, and Taylor Swift and many others. Moreover, Johnny has received radio airplay for both albums across the Maritimes.
The new look “Johnny Oliver Band” formed in early Janusry 2013 is a four-piece Country/Rock band which features Johnny Oliver as Lead Vocalist and Rhythm Guitarist; Wayne Murnaghan on Bass Guitar & Vocals; Marcel Arsenault on Lead Guitar, & Vocals; and Bob Gagnon on drums.
The “Johnny Oliver Band” has many influences. Johnny's shows consist with some Hard-Driving Country/Rock to smooth tender ballads. Johnny’s performance will sure to please, when he lights the stage up with some hard driving country-rock classic covers, such as Matt Minglewood’s “The Drinker” and Stevie Ray Vaughn’s “The House is Rockin’”. With this diversity, the audience is never bored.
With the release of Johnny’s third album “She's Gonna Love Me”, Johnny has been busy promoting his new material throughout the Maritimes and is working on a limited Cross Canada tour in the fall.
The Johnny Oliver Band is looking forward to a very busy and successful 2013.
