The One Where Old Man Johnson Drops Spider Bomb

 

The One Where Old Man Johnson Drops Spider Bomb 🎸

Hey music lovers! Just wrapped up an awesome chat with the guys from Old Man Johnson, and let me tell you - these dudes still got it! Danny Carver, Jordan Olson, and Mike Lomax joined us to talk about their latest track "Spider Bomb" and man, what a ride down memory lane.

The Band That Makes You Laugh (On Purpose!)

These guys have been making music together since the late '90s, and their secret sauce? They don't take themselves too seriously. As Mike put it, "If it's not funny, it's not Old Man Johnson." And honestly? That's what makes them special.

Spider Bomb - 15 Years in the Making

Their new track "Spider Bomb" just dropped, and get this - they recorded it back in 2012! Jordan spilled the tea about writing it before band practice, inspired by his hatred of spiders. Classic OMJ move: take something totally random and turn it into a killer track.

The Friendship That Keeps On Giving

Here's the cool part - these guys aren't just bandmates, they're legit best friends. Jordan summed it up perfectly: "These guys are some of my absolute best friends still to this day." Even though they're not actively touring, they still hang out, text each other memes, and occasionally make some noise together.

What's Next?

While they're not hitting the road anytime soon, they've got more unreleased tracks in the vault. But in true OMJ fashion, Jordan jokes about their release strategy: "It's funner to say we're gonna release it and never release it and get people hyped up."

The Danny Carver Tip Jar Legend

Fun fact: Danny's got this massive tip jar he uses at his solo gigs - we're talking industrial-size bucket here. His words? "That tip jar has made me more money than any song I've ever written." Marketing genius right there!

Where Are They Now?

• Danny's killing it with Wood Carver and the Hard Hearted
• Mike's the go-to drummer for basically all of northern Utah
• Jordan's co-running Enchord Academy in Layton
• And they're all still making music, just in their own ways

Why Old Man Johnson Still Matters

These guys prove that sometimes the best things in music come from genuine connections and not taking yourself too seriously. Their mix of humor and solid musicianship creates something special that still resonates with fans old and new.
