Largely a solo effort in the past, Johansen is now joined on stage with a 5-piece band, allowing his beautiful compositions to be fully brought to life. Recorded in his studio on the coast of Norway, Johansen played nearly every instrument on "The Simple Life" as well as handled production duties.
"The Simple Life" marks Magnet's third full-length and was released earlier this year throughout Europe, including Norway, where it was the #1 album week of release. To celebrate the album's arrival, Johansen played 40,000 feet on an airplane flying from Oslo to Reykjavik, breaking the world record for highest performance ever performed.
