Jack Johnson Biography

Jack Johnson is one of the most popular and richest Rock Singer who was born on May 18, 1975 in North Shore, Hawaii, United States. Singer-songwriter known for his acoustic guitar-based folk rock songs. He first gained attention for his 2001 debut album Brushfire Fairytales. His best known songs include “Upside Down,” “Better Together,” and “Banana Pancakes.”

He featured Ben Harper on the song “With My Own Two Hands,” from his 2006 album Sing-A-Longs and Lullabies for the Film Curious George.

The son of well-known surfer Jeff Johnson, Jack was born and raised on the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii. He began to learn how to surf at the age of five. At seventeen he became the youngest invitee to make the finals of the Pipeline Masters, one of surfing’s most prestigious events, on Oahu’s North Shore. One week later, however, his stint as a professional surfer ended when he suffered a surfing accident at the Pipeline that put more than 150 stitches in his forehead and removed a few of his teeth; this later became the inspiration for the song “Drink the Water”. He appeared as a surfer in The Endless Summer II in 1994.

Jack Johnson graduated from Kahuku High School in Oahu. He would later attend the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), and graduated in 1997 with a B.A. in Film studies. While Johnson learned the guitar at the age of 8 and started songwriting at the age of 12, his passion for music grew when he played rhythm guitar for the band Soil (not to be confused with the heavy metal band of the same name) in college. In 1994, Zach Gill’s band, Django Reinhardt, released a CD that quickly made Django a favorite band of the Isla Vista party scene at UCSB. Django was the rival of Jack Johnson’s band Soil, but Gill and Johnson developed a strong friendship, eventually becoming bandmates in later years. While with Soil at UCSB, Johnson opened for then relatively unknown acts such as Sublime and Dave Matthews with far from sold out crowds at the venues.

He married his college sweetheart Kim Johnson on July 22, 2000. The couple has three children together.
