"Johnny Childs: Do Not Ignore him!"
Wasser-Prawda Magazine
by Nathan Norgel (January 19, 2012)
Johnny Childs is a very active person. He published his truly remarkable album "Groove" in 2011. In 2010 he had finished the film "The Junkman's Son" after nine years of tirelessly working on it. This movie tells the most amusing story of a bluesman, who tries to find his way into the music business. The strip accompanies him through the six months before his 30th Birthday. Until that day, so he has made??, he wants to get a decent record deal. And then after that comes the Blues Music Award for "Best New Artist". Or so goes the story of the film.
But this is not reality. It's not easy for a blues musician to make his living with his music. But Johnny Childs is a fighter. A fighter for his music and for the blues as a truly American art. He started a group on facebook to establish an International Blues Music Day. "Wasser-Prawda" asked him about this project, but also about the Blues Music Awards and what they mean to the musicians. And we asked him about his challenge to Tommy Castro too.
