Johnny Colla Radio Interview and Three Acoustical Songs with Stef Burns

By debP HLN Today Editor

Oct 17, 2008: While touring with Chicago and promoting his “Lucky Devil” CD a couple of summers back, Johnny Colla took part in an extraordinary thirty minute radio interview with Chad Blake of Jones Radio Network. We’re pleased to announce that Johnny has sent us this interview for our listening pleasure, and it was well worth the wait!

The interview includes the lighthearted Johnny speaking of growing up with parents supportive of his musical talents, his musical influences, and of working with different artists before beginning an accomplished career with Huey and The News.

After getting to know Johnny, we’re treated to three of his songs performed acoustically, on the spot, accompanied by Stef Burns! Hearing these songs “unplugged” is phenomenal – two of them aren’t even on the “Lucky Devil” CD!

By the way, Johnny’s “Lucky Devil” CD is still available at Amazon.com, who holds all available copies in existence, (and according to Johnny, only 3,000 were pressed up.)

Also, please note that since the broadcast, Johnny’s website has changed to: http://www.myspace.com/johnnycolla

HLN.org would like to thank Johnny for sharing this rare treat with all of us!
