Back with his latest soul-pop offering, Louis Vann Johnson storms straight back onto the scene with spine-tingling single ‘Backfired‘. Taken from his latest EP ’34/7’, the leading single has the power to instantly steal your mind and let you put your own interpretation on the anthem. Passionate and definitely one of the most heartfelts singles you’ll encounter this month, ‘Backfired’ blends layers of R&B, Soul and Pop to convey its diverse soundscape.
Telling the story of finding a relationship in a state of mayhem, ‘Backfired’ explores the journey of recognising, understanding and eventually accepting that sometimes the best thing to do is move on. Also explaining to listeners to have confidence in themselves to always put their own situation first, ‘Backfired’ builds beautifully and creates a fine momentum for Louis’ future.
Written with friend Jordan Thomas, the track was originally written for another artist but Louis resonated with it and made it his own. If upcoming releases are anything like ‘Backfired’ or the overall EP, fans are in for a real treat. Written with friend. Influenced by the likes of Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Prince, George Benson, Quincy Jones, Bob Marley and Craig David to name a few, Louis Vann Johnson oozes with star quality and could even find his name in lights next to his inspirations one day.
