It's called Room 213 and is based on a fictional motel room and a series of events that unfold there. I can't share any actual recordings yet, but here's me playing a song called "Please Come Home" that will be on it:<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRBcyYWjqMk">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRBcyYWjqMk</a><br /> <br /> In other news, I'm also coming out of the woodwork for a night in December, as in a show! I'm playing a battle of the bands at the Graffiti Gallery on Saturday, December 6th, which I'm pretty excited for. I will be playing all-new material, including songs from Room 213 so if you're interested in a sneak listen then I'd suggest you book that evening off now. Full details on the shows page.<br /> <br /> Anyway, hope you like the video and the song in the video, and nice to start connecting again.<br /> <br /> Cheers,<br /> <br /> Johnny<br /> 2008-11-10 http://www.johnnybroadway.com/index/news-app/story.60/title.tomorrow-night-s-show-location-changed- Hello everyone, just a quick but important announcement that tomorrow night's show has been moved from the new Academy in Osborne Village to the original Academy Bar &amp; Eatery. The new venue's opening was delayed. Hope to see you all tomorrow night!<br /> <br /> Cheers,<br /> <br /> Johnny<br /> 2007-09-10 http://www.johnnybroadway.com/index/news-app/story.59/title.over-4-000-viewers-for-my-music-video-on-youtube- Wow, I just checked my profile on YouTube today and my video for the song "<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CXZvEme4QA">If Your Love Were...</a>" on my album <a href="/fwd.php?url=http://cdbaby.com/cd/johnnybroadway">Discoverers</a> has been viewed 4,028 times so far! That's pretty crazy. It must have something to do with the superb acting... ;)<br /> <br /> Just thought I'd share my excitement over that with all of you.<br /> <br /> Cheers,<br /> <br /> Johnny<br /> 2007-05-18 http://www.johnnybroadway.com/index/news-app/story.58/title.fun-show-tonight-and-other-good-stuff-coming-down-the-pipeline-soon Tonight's show was a fun week night show.  <a href="http://www.myspace.com/brendaneiles">Brenda Neiles</a> had to bow out of the opening slot but her partner in rhyme (is that too cheesy?  I think it might be) and most excellent songwriter himself, <a href="http://www.myspace.com/marceldesilets">Marcel Desilets</a>, quickly came to the rescue.<br /> <br /> I played a few songs I haven't played live in some time, including a couple I wrote way back when I first moved to Winnipeg almost 8 years ago, one of which chronicles my brief employment as a telemarketer selling pantyhose (it's true, I don't think I'm creative enough to make something like that up!).<br /> <br /> In other news, I've been recording up a storm (or an album?) and it's sounding good.  It's fresh and straying fairly far from <a href="/fwd.php?url=http://cdbaby.com/cd/johnnybroadway">Discoverers</a>, so far in fact that I may have to put together a proper lineup to accompany me on stage in the near future.  Who knows?  Psychics must, I'm sure.<br /> <br /> I'm also planning a few more gigs/events for the summer months, so this won't be the last you'll be hearing from me I promise you that.<br /> <br /> Cheers,<br /> <br /> Johnny<br /> 2007-05-16 http://www.johnnybroadway.com/index/news-app/story.57/title.the-broadcast-is-back-from-the-dead- After an over 3-month hiatus (not by choice, I assure you), the <a href="/fwd.php?url=http://odeo.com/channel/123523/view">Broadcast online radio show</a> is back with a seventh episode featuring a handful of songs and partial songs from a box I discovered while unpacking. Head on over and take a listen!<br /> <br /> Cheers,<br /> <br /> Johnny<br /> 2007-02-27
