Country singer and Texas native Matt Johnson recently moved to Hudson Valley, NY to pursue his dream of becoming a professional singer. At the age of 16, he has already found success in the music industry: Johnson made it to the top five in Radio Disney's Next Big Thing, which he described as "one of the coolest weeks of my life!" Shortly after working with Ric Poulin (Bristol Pro Vocal Coach), Johnson won the local Texaco Country Showdown, the nation's largest and longest running Country Talent Search. His accomplishments include performing at the Texas State Fair mainstage, at Old Settler's Music Festival, as well as opening for the Jonas Brothers.
"Dodge Ram" is one of Johnson's latest creations, "A boy's dream truck: big tires, painted camo, a superhero kind of truck. Hot girls and the best of the best in country music on the radio." This song was written last summer by Johnson in collaboration with his piano teacher, Julie Bonk, after talking about what kind of car he wanted when he turned 16. The animation was brilliantly done by a friend of the family and is now up on YouTube. And to satisfy everyone's curiosity, yes, The Johnson's do own a Dodge Ram diesel truck (camo coming soon).
