\nSource<\/a><\/p>\n
Alexz Johnson has serious pipes and a soulful\/ folky indie-pop texture that\u2019s won over The Village Voice, MTV Buzzworthy and Billboard to name a few.<\/p>\n
She\u2019s been ranked on Billboard Music’s “Uncharted” to watch list and has co-writes under her belt with Bruno Mars, The Civil Wars\u2019 Joy Williams and Ron Sexsmith to name a few. She\u2019s also been supported by some of pop music\u2019s top women – from Nelly Furtado<\/a> to Demi Lovato<\/a>.<\/p>\n
After a child-star career acting and singing Alexz was bound for success early on and the momentum continued into her early 20\u2019s – signing major labels deals with SONY and EPIC. A few years older and a few Major Label-year\u2019s wiser, Alexz is proudly independent. Last fall she decided to take advantage of her massive and extremely loyal fanbase \u2014 launching a PledgeMusic Campaign and successfully raised close to $50,000 from thousands of fans\u2019 donations.<\/p>\n
