Jazz
Standards with Memphis Soul
From the stylish Frank Sinatra to the bluesy Billie Holiday, from the sophisticated swing of Cole Porter to the jumping jazz of Duke Ellington, Gary Johns is the master of setting a classic, elegant mood—with a soulful Memphis feel.
A staple of the Memphis music scene for decades, Johns toured with Jackie Wilson and has performed with such luminaries as Billy Joel, Charlie Rich, Jerry Lee Lewis, Rufus Thomas, and Steve Winwood. In addition to several albums, numerous nominations for Premier Player Awards, regular gigs at the Peabody Hotel, and over 5,000 radio jingles, Johns entertains at dozens of weddings and private functions annually.
Working with some of the region’s finest musicians, Johns can perform as a trio, quartet, or larger band. From timeless ballads to blues standards to jazzy improvisation, Johns’ consummate professionalism and exquisite talent will create an unforgettable image for any event.
