Hobo Johnson

n Sunday, December 7th the Community Center for the Performing Arts welcomes Mammoth NW Presents Hobo Johnson & The Lovemakers at the WOW Hall.

A Sacramento-born vocalist, rapper, and spoken-word artist, Hobo Johnson rose to fame in 2018 when his arresting performance of “Peach Scone” in NPR’s Tiny Desk Contest went viral. His Cincinnati-recorded debut album, The Rise of Hobo Johnson (2017), led to a deal with Reprise Records. He followed with The Fall of Hobo Johnson (2019) on Warner, which featured the hit singles “Typical Story” and “Uglykid” and earned placements at festivals like Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza.

Blending raw emotion with witty storytelling, Hobo Johnson’s live shows are part concert, part confessional, engaging fans with a genuine, unconventional energy.
