Johnnie Ferro

Johnnie Ferro is a singer, guitarist and songwriter who is quickly making a name for himself in the Los Angeles music scene. Years of influence from a variety of genres and sources developed this artist who is easily capable of adapting to multiple styles of music, including metal, hard rock, country and rap. His first solo album, Cockeyed Optimism, combines his experiences into one coherent record. It will be available in CD and digital formats on June 2, 2012.

The first two singles from the album, "Low" and "Falling," are already catching the attention of fans across the country as he encases a rock style many acts are missing in today’s watered-down musical landscape. The goal of Cockeyed Optimism is to reach an audience that will connect with his lyrics, melodies and musical honesty.

When not performing solo, Ferro continues to perform with alt-rock artist, B Mill, where he plays bass and sings. His experience as a session musician allows him to constantly develop his talents with a range of diverse and influential artists.

Originally hailing from western New York, Ferro honed his talents playing in local groups such as Reverse Vector and The Phoenix Resistance, a heavy metal band and an alternative rock band, respectively. After finding success in the Buffalo music scene, he made his way west and began creating and collaborating with various artists. Since his arrival in Los Angeles, Ferro played with Deedee O’Malley & Size 7 Hat and Josephine’s Alibi, as guitarist and vocalist. Past venues to experience Johnnie Ferro include the Whiskey A-Go-Go, Paladino’s and Amplyfi.
