biographical info

Often described as one of Canada's greatest up-and-coming acts, Johnny Don't is a group with an extraordinary talent for blending various musical styles and outrageous witty humour into a "brand" of music that is as unique as it is familiar.

Together, Mike Colli, Graham Templeman, Dave Postnikoff and Jesse Dawson have created a musical repertoire that simply kicks ASS. With their well crafted sense for lyric, and infectious melodies it is very easy to find a Johnny Don't song stuck in your head. The skillful delivery of their music, is what sets Johnny Don't apart. They bring a "no inhibitions" clause to their stage show, always interacting with the crowd. Johnny Don't make's "you"the audience feel like your at home with a band in your Living room. Invaded and Blown Away. In fact more often than not, Johnny Don't more of a Comedy/Rock show thing happenin'. With their satirical song writing and impeccable timing, Johnny don't usually leaves their audience hanging off their every word and rolling off their seats in laughter.

On April 1st 2010, Johnny Don't unveiled their debut CD "THE FULL CITY". An album which brilliantly captures the eccentricities of this band. With each new song comes a different genre, all stacked with irresistible hooks that command your attention. Over the course of 2010 Johnny Don't has been playing across the country to deliver their anxiously awaited debut release to their Canadian fans.

Now In 2011 Fans can expect A WESTERN CANDIAN TOUR in FEBRUARY and EASTERN CANADIAN TOUR in MAY. With a new batch of "soon to be" Hit Songs. Including the funky " BIG SEX" and Next summer's new JD single "All I need is U"
