Jaylene Johnson ---- Winnipeg singer/songwriter Jaylene Johnson is no stranger to the twists and turns in the life of a musician, having experienced her own tilt-a-whirl journey, to say the least. The most dramatic event was a head-on collision with a semi-truck in December of 2004, which capped off an extensive coast-to-coast Canadian tour. What followed was a season where excruciating pain brought life to a halt. But she survived the accident and subsequent injuries, and once again bought tickets for the music industry ride. On her third full-length album, Happiness, you'll be grateful that she did. www.jaylenejohnson.com
