About this user

Once you've seen Johanna Stahley perform, you'll never forget her. Her extraordinary charisma and infectious energy will captivate you and her songs will reach your soul and stay in your mind.

With a voice born in the choir loft and a body consumed by rhythm, Johanna leads her five-piece ensemble through kick-ass soul-rock. Her self-released solo LP, I'm Not Perfect (March 2006), showcases Johanna's thoughtful lyrics and dynamic progressions. Two songs she wrote were recently featured on MTV's Laguna Beach, and she was chosen "Featured Artist" on both MTV.com and MySpace.com, driving world-wide sales of I'm Not Perfect.

The record's first reviews have pegged Johanna as a hit-maker: "This local gal's I'm Not Perfect is a better and bouncier Sheryl Crow album than Sheryl's managed in a while: a little-opener-that-could called "My Big O (I Can)," a "Misery" that's not miserable at all, a tap-dancey alley-cat-rhythmed Rickie Lee or Norah Jones--jazzed title cut, a bartender ode, Steve Tyler vocal inflections, and through it all, a bassist and drummer bop out full-on, sometimes Diddleyfied, '60s bubblegum soul beats. Cool!" (Chuck Eddy, Music Editor, The Village Voice, April 2006)

Putting a positive spin on missteps and broken relationships is the message threaded through I'm Not Perfect. Produced by Yellopop (Williamsburg, Brooklyn), the record has met with enthusiasm from the music industry. MTV's top-rated program Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County featured two songs on separate episodes. Johanna was chosen among thousands to be a "Featured Artist" on MySpace.com (May 2006), garnering the single, "I'm Not Perfect" 150,000 plays since April 2006. The song is also being picked up by broadcast radio along with Internet radio and podcasts. Johanna's drive, persistence, talent and hard work are evident in these accomplishments.

Johanna first found her rock and soul voice when she fronted the critically acclaimed New Brunswick, NJ band Spredhaus early in the millennium. The band dissolved after three albums and Johanna set forth on a solo career. She then began to expand her songwriting arsenal by collaborating with other writers. When I'm Not Perfect was finished, there were seven collaborators across the ten songs. Her exposure to these guiding influences strengthened Johanna as a songwriter, guitarist and performer.

Johanna's fan base continues to grow through MySpace.com, street team campaigns and at her unforgettable, action packed live shows. Along with performances in NYC, a U.S tour is on the schedule for the fall of 2006.

Johanna Stahley's explosive stage presence, soulful voice, and ability to craft a hit record are leading this emerging talent down her chosen road, one imperfect step at a time.
