Johnny Galactic is a three piece acoustic rock band from lower Vancouver Island. Their music style is distinct yet dynamic; a coalescence of the timeless story telling of folk, the sunny strumming of eukeleles and acoustic guitars, the beats of powerpop, and the raw energy of rock. The band is made up of Jonathan Reid: crooner/songwriter, Graham MacKenzie: percussion, didge and guitar, and Aran Purich: bass and rock kicks. They draw their inspiration from such bands as the Tragically Hip, Tom Petty, the Skydiggers ; as they write songs to the beat of the west coast rain on their roofs and to the lull of the waves rolling up the sand to their feet. From campfire jams , to nightclubs and theatres , the live show this energetic trio brings to the stage challenges the crowd to sit still, but from the moment they pick up their instruments, it’s obvious that no one is having more fun than the boys themselves
