I DON'T LISTEN TO THE RADIO
Ipswich singer-songwriter Damien J. Johnson and The Damien J. Johnson Band will release their new single, I DON'T LISTEN TO THE RADIO, on all major streaming platforms on July 24th, 2026.
The track marks the third and final single to be released ahead of the band's forthcoming debut album and continues the group's commitment to authentic, performance-driven recording.
Recorded in Ipswich, Queensland, I DON'T LISTEN TO THE RADIO was tracked live in the studio in a single take, with the full band performing together without the use of a click track. The approach was a deliberate effort to capture the spontaneity, chemistry and imperfections that make live music compelling.
Rather than relying on extensive studio editing, the recording preserves the natural ebb and flow of a real band performance. Only minimal overdubs were added following the initial take, allowing the energy and personality of the original session to remain front and centre.
