DOUG JOHNSON

Performer | Composer | Musician

I’m a founding member of Loverboy. Alongside that, I’ve spent my career composing original music for film, television, and the concert stage. My compositions have been used on television, radio, film, and online, and I wrote commissioned pieces for the City of Surrey’s 2010 Winter Olympics torch lighting ceremony and the 2011 and 2012 BC Summer Games openings.

I’m a classically trained pianist. My debut solo album, Notes to Self, collects ten original pieces for piano, strings, and flute.

My honours include induction into the Canadian Musical Hall of Fame, Leo Award nominations, an ARCT Silver Medal, and an honorary Doctor of Letters from the University of British Columbia (2020).

I work from my home studio near Vancouver, British Columbia. For licensing or commissions, email info@dougjohnsonmusic.com.
