On his last two studio albums, Jack Johnson pushed into darker territory and delved deeper into electric guitar work than ever before in his music career.Now, with his sixth studio album "From Here To Now To You," the Hawaii-based singer-songwriter returns to a looser, folkier sound. Written entirely on acoustic guitar and recorded in Hawaii at Johnson’s own Mango Tree Studio, "From Here To Now To You" marks a reunion with producer Mario Caldato, Jr.

We will listen to "From Here To Now To You" track by track this week on High Plains Morning, Monday through Friday from 9am to noon.

Inside HPPR

Mike Fuller

Mike Fuller remains our station's favorite prodigal son. Former Music Director of High Plains Public Radio, and host of High Plains Morning (2010-2015), he has returned to HPPR with a new show called What The Folk?—a signature mix of folk, roots, Americana, and more—woven together by a unifying theme. Tune in every Saturday night at 7pm CT for a two-hour mix that could only come from the man himself.
