Born and raised in Apopka, Florida with a chip on his shoulder and songs in his heart, Rowdy quickly found that he had a gift for expressing himself through lyrics and song. With a name like Rowdy, it’s only fitting, and yes it is his real name!
Growing up down South with the sounds of so many greats such as Merle Haggard, Hank Williams Jr., Marshall Tucker Band, Johnny Cash & ultimately Waylon Jennings among countless others, it was easy to find his inspiration and a sense of freedom in the music.
Never bowing to labels and with the desire to blaze his own path, it's allowed Rowdy to take all his influences and roll them into what Rowdy Johnson music is all about, complete musical freedom.
