Asherton, Johan

Matinee Idols

Born 1958 in Paris, Johan Asherton is a singer-songwriter and guitarist in the haunted tradition of Scott Walker, Lou Reed, or Leonard Cohen. His albums range from "clair obscure" solo acoustic introspection to fully orchestrated drama. Following the bittersweet, semi-acoustic tones of the acclaimed 'Passiontide,' released in 2020, Johan Asherton returns with 'Matinee Idols,' a more rock oriented album that conveys his love for Golden Era Hollywood cinema throughout a series of '50s and '60s influenced vignettes ranging from sheer rock'n'roll, pop rock, torch song and even cabaret.
