Critic’s Pick: Alexz Johnson, Smith’s Olde Bar — There’s an undercurrent of blues running through Canadian singer/songwriter and TV teenage star Johnson’s pop that makes it edgier and more gripping than that of many of her peers. Her voice is sweet and salty, somewhat like that of Carole King, which she uses to great effect on her new piano-based album Seasons. Her songs are catchy and she sells them well, especially when shifting into gospel mode. —Hal Horowitz

Independent Canadian/US dual singer/songwriter, Gemini-Award winning actress, and Mom of two under three, Alexz Johnson is based both in NYC and Toronto, Canada. Portraying musicians and lending her soulful sound and passionate songwriting style to both film and TV (Disney’s So Weird, Instant Star (The N), Pretty Little Liars, Blue on HULU), Alexz has garnered a massive and loyal international fan following.
After years of being signed and held by multiple major labels, Alexz decided to claim her independence by carving her own path in the industry. Raising funds directly from her fanbase she’s continued to finance her tours, albums, and music videos. This past Spring, Alexz, with her family, returned from her successful headline EU/UK tour, promoting her 5th studio album ‘Seasons’ (released April 7th, ‘23). ‘Seasons’, was written and recorded remotely at Alexz’s home studio during the pandemic, with the financial help from her thriving Patreon community.
Alexz continues to work independently in music, holding true to her sound and vision as an artist, advocating and inspiring other budding artists in the process. She’s looking forward to touring her new album across the US, Spring of ‘24.
