A playfully yearning invitation to dream, escape, and play hooky.
Song Release: Before You Leave, 4/21/26The sound track to your spring break...
Song Release: RATHER BE - Johnny Guest
This motown inspired country love song is the perfect thing to warm up your Valentines Day.
From Johnny: I'm devoted to creating art that lifts up the strength that comes from a peaceful loving relationship. Too often, what I hear on the radio is far removed from the family values I cherish, and like Billy F. Gibbons said, “Write what you want to hear”. Rather Be is really about the shelter a husband provides for his wife, the trust she has in him to be there during the tough days, to show up, and help her fight her battles when she's feeling wounded.
“I'll be your shelter, I'll be your place to hide”
If you're on the hunt for a romanticly mellow, easy groove, you've found it in Rather Be.
A collection of songs spanning years and various projects, the title track Someplace Called Free explodes with the burning desire to escape the daily grind and find adventure.
“…The lure of adventure keeps me indentured to the next thing, the next town, the next song…dreaming of where I’m meant to be…Someplace Called Free” - Johnny Guest
