Brazilian singer-songwriter Johnny Monster released his new album, A Nova Era Do Só Você , in November via ForMusic Records. Featuring a new and more organic sound, the album includes 10 tracks that create Johnny's strongest and most conceptual work to date.
The creation process for A Nova Era Do Só Você began in an acoustic format, just guitar and vocals, at Aurora studio in late 2020. “I felt a very strong need to record these songs. They were composed at different times, but with common characteristics: they had a line, a 'Brazilian psychedelic folk country rock' style different from my other albums, where the songs have varied directions, mixing styles,” says Johnny. “This time, it’s almost like a 'concept' album; all the songs really complement each other.”
