Biography

Over a smoked-out mélange of R&B, abstract pop, and hip-hop, Pennsylvania-born and Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter-producer Johnny Yukon threads together an all-encompassing experience. Through grainy visuals captured on Super 8 film and fashion-forward stills rooted in vintage, yet modern panache, Yukon upholds consistent cinematic motifs across sound and style. His world draws as much from Kubrickian attention to detail and Christopher Nolan-style scope as it does from unpredictable production and hazy melodicism. 
 Throughout 2017 and 2018, Yukon carefully assembled every nuance. Between establishing himself as an in-demand songwriter with placements ranging from Lil Wayne's "What About Me" on Carter V to Young Thug and Ty Dolla $ign to Camila Cabello and Rae Sremmurd, he ignited a groundswell of early fan and tastemaker support as an artist. Accompanied by a Deer Hunter-inspired video, his track "Snooze" generated 5 million-plus cumulative streams within a few months' time, while G-Eazy tapped him for an assist on "Eyes Closed."
