Los-Angeles based bassist and songwriter Daryl Johns announces his self-titled debut album, Daryl Johns. Johns writes euphoric pop music “of a certain Irish quality.” His earnestly hopeful TV show theme music, bent over the knee of New Jersey “diner rock”—his “pop for victory”—his “champion pop,” his “sped up pop”—sometimes his sunny “bubblegum country” or his coke-eyes “motivational jazz fusion”—all find their home on the artist’s debut.
