“Artist Tracy Johnson gets a Thunderstorm of praise for her new single, “The Art of Dreaming.” A smash of slightly mystical cymbals and whispering drums. A little Lisa Loeb in the vocals. A “pretty, pretty, pretty” sound-and yes, you have got yourself a dream. You ask yourself how a little girl from Minnesota, who loved wild weather and the outdoors, could get the inside track on today’s most current sound? When the music is that good, why ask? Get Tracy Johnson now!”

Soon after moving to San Diego, Tracy came to the attention of famed manager Inga Vainshtein (Jewel Kilcher) and Producer/Songwriter David K Sale (Katharine Whalen). Tracy’s debut album, Dreams in Cold Weather, was nominated for “Best Pop Album” at the 2007 San Diego Music Awards. One of her singles, “The Good Life”, spent nine weeks on the Top 40 charts on one of the largest radio stations in Turkey. Two of the tracks started receiving airplay on XM Satellite Radio.
In March of 2008, Tracy signed a deal with Fabtone Records/Media Factory Distribution and will be releasing Dreams in Cold Weather in Japan.
