About the show
Singer-songwriter Benita Johnson - now Sussex-based but with roots only a few miles down the road - plays two solo acoustic sets of mainly originals with some covers.
Her music has been described as “not folk, not rock or pop – it’s Benita Johnson doing her thing and it’s beautiful” (Malcolm Carter, Pennyblack Music Reviews) and sits generally beneath the Alt-Country, Folk-Rock, Americana banners. Listeners cite similarities to Dido, Amanda Marshall, Texas and even Bessie Smith.
“Her songwriting is top quality stuff … I’d be surprised if you’re not convinced you’re in the presence of an unsung genius” (David Kidman, NetRhythms Reviews).
