Today on the show I’m sitting down with the eclectic, alternative rock n’ roller who calls himself Johnny Manchild. The Big Takeover magazine puts him somewhere between Billie Joe Armstrong and Frank Sinatra, but that’s only if we’re to forget about Frank Zappa and Mike Patton. 

Johnny Manchild and The Poor Bastards are a multi-genre ensemble founded by Johnny himself, who handles the compositions, production, vocals and keyboards, while his glorious band of misfits, affectionately known as the “Poor Bastards” provide a backdrop to his zany musical stylings. 

Simply put, Johnny’s charming presence and infectious songs have made him quite successful, totaling over twenty million streams to date. I have him on the phone, so join me in welcome Johnny Manchild to the Mouthful of Graffiti podcast!
