keisha To me, this album captures that uncanny feeling of coming back to a place you no longer consider home. Favorite track: I KNOW THESE THINGS.

Press...

"Killer Whale, the recording alias of folk musician Thomas Johnson. Johnson’s music, as evidenced by his Giant Waves EP on Bandcamp, is both ariose and harmonic, rich with vocal inflection and melody. Equal parts Bon Iver and Grizzly Bear, it soothes the soul with textured instrumentation and introspective lyrics."
-Ty Simmons, DIG magazine

" At the heart of mostly every song is a simple folk song, but what varies greatly is the manner in which the artist chooses to present it. Johnson has been working on new material that explores the possibilities of his vision. His efforts to find unique and novel ways to present his writing have yielded refreshing results. One thing is clear from these recordings..Johnson has absolutely no interest in being a simple, strumming balladeer.
In his new project Killer Whale, Johnson is widening the sonic footprint of his sound. In the process, he has taken a keen interest in recording methods and electronic instruments not commonly associated with folk music. Although guitar and vocals remain the heart of his songs, Johnson's new material incorporates digital and analog drum machines, synthesizers and densely layered vocal effects."
-Justin McGowan, 225 magazine
