WINNER New Jersey Folk Festival songwriting competition
FINALIST 2010 Susquehanna Folk Festival Songwriting Competition, Havre de Grace, MD May 7, 2010
Appearing at the 2010 Montauk Music Festival, May 13-16 times & venues to be announced
A special Hello to my friends from Shenzhen, China, Beijing, China & San Diego, California
Check out this new interview about Kaydi's music HERE
There's a cool radio interview I did with Fred Migliore, from FM Odyssey. The link is below. I love how he found me. Legendary radio host, Pete Fornatale, from WFUV, NY had my CD playing in his car when he picked Fred up from the airport. It's so cool how your music takes on a life of its own--and you never know who's listening!

Kaydi is happy to announce the release of her third CD,
"Peasant of the Wreck" on Fifty Fifty Music
- It's not easy to put Kaydi Johnson's music into a neat package. This artist deftly cracks the stereotype of the cordial female singer/songwriter holding a guitar. Known for her witty word plays and tightrope topics, it's tough not to get drawn in and intoxicated by her crisp musical style and insightful lyrics. Her eagerly awaited third CD, "Peasant of the Wreck," (produced by David Seitz- Moby, Bruce Springsteen) transcends the safety of your garden-variety composition. Exploring themes of family, corruption, politics and love, Kaydi holds nothing back.
- WINNER!!! 2010 New Jersey Folk Festival Songwriting Competition, Rutgers Universtiy
- Kaydi was selected for the Falcon Ridge Emerging Artist Showcase in New York, 2003.
- She has opened for David Crosby, Robert Earl Keene and Lucy Kaplansky and Pure Prairie League.

- She has appeared on Vin Scelsa's "Idiot's Delight" on WFUV, in NYC. Pete Fornatele of WFUV, Fordam University, NY, gave her honorable mention when selecting his "top ten" albums of 2002.
- Finalist in the Founders Title Folk and Bluegrass Festival (July 11-13 2008) Snowbird, Utah

Click on Kaydi's new CD
Peasant of the Wreck
And so it was with the Peasant of the Wreck. Dwarfed and pruned. Budding but sometimes dormant. Tender but tough. Various methods were employed for each song on the CD. As centuries of people have enjoyed the aesthetics of the Bonsai for its exhibition of different budding behavior, so will listeners continue to appreciate the similarities between the natural and unnatural world of Kaydi’s music.
