About Johnny Rivers
Johnny Rivers is a legendary American musician, songwriter, singer, and record producer who can be easily described as ‘a one-of-a-kind personality in rock music history’. On the most basic level, he was a 1960s successful musician, a real oddity as a singer and guitarist who rose to prominence as a plain rock & roll hit maker.
Behind the curtains, his records and popularity spawned deals with at least three major record companies and a slew of other professions that lasted far into the 1970s, 1980s, and even beyond.
His area of specialty in music includes blues, folk, pop, and old-time rock 'n' roll. He is most remembered for a series of hit singles including "Memphis”, "The Seventh Son", "Summer Rain", "Baby I Need Your Lovin", and “Poor Side of Town," which at a point in time reached number one in the US music chart.
