Lucas Neil Johnson is a singer-songwriter born and raised in Ballston Spa, New York. Devotion to music through emotional, mental, and spiritual growth has given him great purpose and stability in life. To be able to share that music with beautiful people through live sets, meditations, recordings, and other avenues of performance is what Lucas has been fortunate enough to find as a career. Lucas is single minded in providing the highest quality in entertainment and musical performing as possible, aiming to engage, entertain, and uplift.
Lucas began to find his musical life largely through his father. He was a professional musician throughout his young life and appeared as a drummer and singer with a variety of bands in the 70’s and 80’s. Music was an ever-present point of passion in Lucas' home. Long before it became his main focus, music was a way to commune, escape and look inward, or just release.
Lucas was a student of musical theatre when he was young. He was extremely mesmerized by Broadway, and attempted to engage in local theatre productions as often as possible.
His love of all things growing and the acoustic instrumentation that seems to naturally accompany them, came from his mother Jennifer. A strong and beautiful wildflower of a woman, was slipping Lucas John Denver, Jim Croce, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, and James Taylor. She could be found humming, while working in her garden, at any stage of his adolescence.
Lucas describes his life "lived mostly at a slower pace. I spend time with loved ones in nature, missing my guitar, and time with my guitar, missing the mountains. I seek to be the fullest human being I can be, as well as a more complete musician than I was yesterday. That is all I have, and all that I need."
Lucas adds, "If you listen to my music, I love you, and there is nothing you can do about it. If you come and see me perform with the intentions of listening and appreciating, I love you, and there is nothing you can do about it."

Olivia Charlotte plays a mix of originals and covers with a folky feel. Her vocal style is unique and haunting, with a sorrowful but hopeful tone. Her debut single “Diagnostics” and its accompanying music video was described by Loud Women as “a strong alt rock debut” reminiscent of bands like The Cranberries.
