Johnny Yukon is on a roll right now and today is further proof of that with the release of “Right Now!”.
Known for pairing his projects with grainy visuals captured on Super 8 film and fashion-forward stills rooted in vintage, yet modern panache, the up-n-coming Los Angeles-based, Philadelphia-bred singer and songwriter upholds consistent cinematic motifs across sound and style.
Yukon’s world draws as much from Kubrickian attention to detail and Christopher Nolan-style scope as it does from unpredictable production and hazy melodicism. With a goal to “make bigger music that reaches a lot of people,” the Pennsylvania-born and Los Angeles-based artist kickstarted what has proven a truly prolific creative streak with such vibrantly original tracks as “Whispers,” “Moment,“ “Comet,” “Whatever You Want,” and a dazzling cover of The Buggles’ timeless “Video Killed The Radio Star.”
Alongside his own evolving body of work, Yukon is an in-demand collaborator, songwriter and producer partnerships alongside the likes of Lil Wayne, David Guetta, Ciara, Charlie Puth, Flo Rida, gnash, Alex Da Kid, Dr. Luke, JR Rotem, and Frank E, to name only a few.
