Johanna Hermera
More than just a yodelling Queen!
Johanna Hemara’s musical journey began long before she had reached double figures, singing with her mother and father in variety shows all around Sydney from the age of six.
You may also be surprised to learn that Johanna has never actually been taught to sing: it came naturally from her Austrian born mother, as did an inherited ability to yodel.
So impressive was her rapid mastery of the yodel that it gained her instant notoriety, winning her the coveted Australian Yodelling Championship title in 2008.
Having relocated with her young family to Tamworth in 2015, Johanna now spends time thrilling audiences Australia wide touring the cabaret scene, entertaining at music festivals and selected venues, and has earned a reputation as one of the finest and most versatile vocalists in the business.
In Australian country music circles, Johanna Hemara is really starting to make her mark as an independent performer of note and, blessed with an amazing vocal range and a girl next door charm, Johanna impresses every time she walks onto the stage.
Having already released three stunning albums, “Starting Over” earned Johanna the 2010 Frank Ifield International Spur Award, a finalist spot in the 2010 Golden Saddle Awards, and won her a legion of new fans.
Johanna’s choice of material ranges from heartfelt ballads through to racy straight ahead rockers and it’s this great versatility that is proving to be the real key to her growing popularity.
From ‘Yodelling Princess’ to the ‘Queen of Country’ ….the world is quickly learning that is much more to the incredible talents of Johanna Hemara.
