Hello, I'm glad you found my page! My name is Clif Johnson and I've been playing piano/keyboards for 16+years. Since moving to Los Angeles 3 years ago, I've been able to play behind artists such as Tori Kelly, Leona Lewis, Juicy J, Jamie N Commons, JoJo and many others. Hopefully we can create some great music together!
My aim is to add the right Piano/Synth elements to your music to make it come alive. I can add a piano to your vocal, fill up your track with big synths, or add what we call in the musician world "colors" to your music.
Tell me about your project and how I can help, through the 'Contact' button above.
Interview with Clif Johnson
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: I want to see you happy and loving your music. It's such an emotional expression and I want you to be 100% happy with the finished work.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: My strongest skill is accommodating what the artist hears in their head. Playing for different artists and genres have really helped me in that area.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I typically like to listen first and really catch the essence of the song. Once I feel like I have a general direction, I start to experiment with different sounds. I feel like when the right idea comes it all clicks.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I mainly play live behind major and indie artists.
