Live Music with Johnny Franco and his real brother Dom!
Walk down any street in Portland, Oregon and you are sure to encounter a mustachioed Brazilian rock and roll troubadour named Johnny Franco. Recently moving from Sao Paulo, Johnny has developed a little following in Portland for his high energy street performances and stylish music. Signed by music producer Sterling Fox (Lana Del Rey, Elle King) on his label Blanket Fort, Johnny has released a debut EP “Experience Report #1” that feels instantly timeless and two singles “Stay Real & Shelter The Light” combining Dylanesque vocal stylings with a unique jangly Brazilian influenced beat.
