When asked what motivates her to make music, Johanna Warren responds immediately: “Music is vibration; it's a direct way to affect matter. A song is a way to journey into places of discord and then resolve back into harmony.”
A nomadic singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Warren constructs complex, gossamer folk compositions that draw from the richness of the human experience and her own unique flavor of mysticism. Her critically acclaimed 2018 release "Gemini II" has received praise from The New York Times, Pitchfork and NPR, among others, and her 2015 sophomore album, "numun", found its way on to several notable year end lists and led Rolling Stone Magazine to name her a "Songwriter You Need to Know."
"A minutely examined and revelatory emotional upheaval, a view of a failed romance sung with meditative grace" - The New York Times
“Heartbreaking and stirring” - Pitchfork
"The spirit that animates much of Warren's music and philosophy [is] an enduring belief that we can be better, despite the hurt and despair we put each other and ourselves through." - NPR
"One of 4 Singer-Songwriters You Need to Know” – Rolling Stone Magazine
"A luminous folk fantasia that’s really quite beautiful" - Stereogum
