On today's show I caught up with Shenai Johnston. Shenai Johnston is a Country music singer-songwriter from Western Australia. With a passion for living on the land, Shenai writes her music from the heart, either by the river or on her small olive farm in the lower South West where she resides with her husband and three children.
Raised in the small town of Ongerup, WA Shenai was singing from the moment she could talk and took up every opportunity to perform at school and community events. After winning a fender guitar in her adolescence, she started getting lessons and this encouraged her songwriting and helped to shape her into the artist she is today.
In March 2024 Shenai flew over to Nashville, Tennessee and recorded her first EP of five tracks. Her first single from the EP “Ever Again” released on May 3rd 2024 and saw Shenai make her official debut into country music with a big bang. Her second single “Made For Living On The Land” showcases Shenai’s deep connection to her roots and living in the country.
The entire EP is due to be released by mid July 2024. In October, Shenai is hitting the road and is booked to play at multiple venues across WA including opening for Beccy Cole on October 19 and playing the Mt Trio Country Music Muster. This is just the beginning for the West Australian singer who aims to release her debut album in 2025.
