Lebron Johnson
A new face of Black Music in Italy and beyond
LeBron Johnson is a funk-soul singer with Nigerian roots who, with his warm, charismatic and energetic voice, gives his music the soul and power it needs to leave its mark.
He is destined for great things and is a true talent on stage, winning over any audience with his magnetic charisma.
In 2022, he began working with guitarist Andrea Pititto (aka Andy Pitt) on his debut album ANONYMOUS, which was released on 13 October 2023 – an original project in which his extraordinary band also plays an important role.
This work marked the beginning of a profound and personal artistic journey that combines soul, funk and blues with traditional Nigerian rhythms.
STRONG MAN STILL HUMAN
The concept revolves around strength and humanity. The inspiration comes from the image of a slave posing and showing his wounds, an image that encompasses the entire history of slavery. This gesture manifests the courage to show one’s suffering without shame and to transform vulnerability into an act of strength. Today, these wounds become art, and that is precisely the message of the album: to find beauty and meaning in our scars.
His eagerly awaited second album, STRONG MAN STILL HUMAN, will be released in October 2025, produced by Riccardo Rinaldi and arranged by Marco Cinelli, frontman of The Cinelli Brothers, one of the leading bands on the European and international blues scene.
This new album promises to raise the bar of his talent even higher. Lebron Johnson is accompanied by Andy Pitt on guitar, Alberto Pavesi on drums, Davide Medicina on bass, Filippo Romano on organ and Leslie.
In addition to the five band members, Sara Agostinelli and Chiara Montanari will reinforce the choir.
