Alexz Johnson is a Canadian born Actress and singer/songwriter from British Columbia. At a young age she was already dedicated to what she loves the most, Music. She began singing at a really young age infront of her family and on other occasions that presented themselves to her. It was at the age of 11 that she began her entertainment career landing a spot on the TV show So Weird. She then went on to do other acting jobs such as on the CTV Original Series Instant Star.

It wasn’t until after Instant Star that Johnson began to focus on her musical career. Now at 24, she has been able to show her diverse acting skills and amazing musical style and talent, with 2 albums under her belt and currently working on some new material she doesn’t plan on taking a break any time soon.

She recently released her new album Reloaded. The album is a remix album that consits of remixed versions of her debut album Voodoo.

Johnson writes a lot of her own music along with her brother and has recently partnered up with a small Indie label in Canada, Orange Lounge Recordings. For her latest project she teamed up with acclaimed music producer Demacio ‘Demo’ Castellon (who has worked with the likes of Jay-Z, Beyonce, Rhianna, Madonna and many more) to create her new album Reloaded.

Today, Brendan post the sample of Skin

Written in the back of a cab of the way of the airport.
It was originally created to be a rock song, but was later decided to be acoustic.
This is the original acoustic recording

Yesterday, Brendan and Alexz launched a new website, where you can hear some sample of they all first songs.

My Brother and I have decided to release to you the beginnings of it all. For us, these songs challenged our songwriting abilities, they came to find their own sound, they landed us record deals, and they still feel like shadows of our growth as artists. The only thing they didn’t get was a proper release.

It’s time to let them go.

This is the soundtrack to our lives.
