We welcome folk singer-songwriter, Dean Johnson, on a tour supporting his latest album, I Hope We Can Still Be Friends on Saddle Creek Records. Johnson, who was a long-time bartender at Al’s Tavern in Seattle’s Wallingford neighborhood, broke out in 2023 with his debut album, Nothing For Me Please, at age 50. Drawing comparisons to the wit, humor, and folk/country-adjacent sound of John Prine or Kris Kristofferson, this latest album was produced by Sera Cahoone and recorded at Unknown Studio in Anacortes, Washington with a band of friends including Abbey Blackwell (bass, backing vocals), multi-instrumentalist Sam Peterson and Cahoone (drums, backing vocals).

  • Doors open at 7:30 p.m.
  • This performance is primarily standing room only. Limited seating is available upon advance request. We are committed to offering inclusive, engaging experiences for people of all abilities. To request accommodations to enhance your visit, please contact access@warhol.org or call 412.237.8354.
