Johnny Rivers Joins 525 Artist Roster
525 Worldwide is pleased to announce the addition of the legendary Johnny Rivers to its artist management roster.
Johnny is perhaps best known for his seventeen Top Forty and nine Billboard Top Ten singles, including his number one hit song "Poor Side of Town," and the cultural touchstone "Secret Agent Man." In the course of a career now entering its fifth decade, Johnny opened LA's Whisky A Go Go as its headliner, helped produce and performed at the Monterey Pop Festival, and founded the Soul City Records label, which had two Number One hits and won two Grammy Awards in 1967 for Record and Song of The Year.
In 2006 Shout Factory and Soul City Records released the remastered 36-song, two-CD "Secret Agent Man: The Ultimate Johnny Rivers Anthology: 1964-2006," which was produced by Johnny and features two new studio recordings. July 2007 saw the re-release of his classic 1973 European Tour live recording, "Last Boogie in Paris: The Complete Concert."
An incredibly versatile artist, Johnny has sung, interpreted, written and recorded blues, classic rock-n-roll, soul, gospel and folk songs, and sold more than 30 million records. Along the way, he's jammed with Elvis, partied with Keith Moon, ridden motorcycles with Steve McQueen, and performed for U.S. troops in Vietnam.
