Shawn Johnston

Shawn Johnston’s music is a breath of fresh air for fans of traditional country, with a sound reminiscent of '90s legends like Randy Travis and George Strait.

Growing up in Dyersburg, TN, Shawn was raised on music. His father was a bluegrass musician, and he began singing in church at an early age. After moving to Lafayette, LA, Shawn served as a worship leader for over 10 years, where his love for country music deepened. Performing covers with his friend, Lyle Begnaud, inspired him to start writing his own music.

As a full-time chiropractor, balancing work, family, and music has been a challenge, but it’s also been rewarding. His debut album, It Was You, captures the highs and lows of life. Rooted in the traditional country sound that shaped him, Shawn’s heartfelt storytelling brings listeners a taste of home.

“I want my music to be like a familiar road - something that brings you comfort, but with a few new turns along the way.”, says Shawn. His music is a testament to joy, family, and his deep love for the genre that’s always been close to his heart.
