FEATURED PUBLICATION
Celebrate! Celebrate! Celebrate!
2023 marks the 10th anniversary of Johnny’s debut as a solo artist, and what a way to also celebrate his milestone 60th birthday! This year’s project is a compilation of highlights from our tour books and other publications over the years, with additional content from The Messenger and Fever Dreams eras, and touching tributes from some of our long-time collaborators and friends. We hope Johnny (and of course our fellow fans) enjoy it as much as we enjoyed compiling it!
Celebrate! Celebrate! Celebrate! (2023)
A celebratory collection showcasing some of the best moments from Johnny’s decade-long solo career and tours, carefully selected from our extensive library of tour books and other publications. This volume also includes exclusive bonus content and heartfelt chapter introductions authored by Seán Fleming, Gabe Echazabal, Alison Moore, Linda Poulnott, Alisa Harrison and Denise DeNezza.
About
Spurred on by the positive reception to the first issue of our fanzine, DYNAMIC, we were inspired to try our hand at a number of other styles of publications that would serve to commemorate the brilliance of Johnny’s solo career.
Each tour period is usually followed by a new edition of our tour book series, and several special occasions (eg. birthdays) have also inspired further special edition publications, all of which are then printed as hardcover books for Johnny as keepsake.
Keep an eye out on our social media accounts for information about future projects and publications!
