DSP Shows Presents:
Magnolia & Johnson Electric Co.
Saturday, April 11, 2026
The Drake | Amherst, MA
Magnolia & Johnson Electric Co. (featuring Will Johnson along with original Magnolia Electric Co. members Mike Brenner, Jason Evans Groth, Michael Kapinus, Mark Rice, and Pete Schreiner) convened in Texas in March 2025 to record new studio versions of both Molina’s and Johnson’s songs, much in the vein of the 2018 Goshen Electric Company collaboration between Magnolia and Tim Showalter of Strand of Oaks.
The sessions were recorded and mixed by Johnson's longtime collaborator Britton Beisenherz and mastered by Magnolia mastering engineer Matthew Barnhart. Iconic artwork by Will Schaff graces the cover, whose artwork has now been inextricably linked to Jason Molina's songwriting.
The group will embark on a four-show Texas tour in September 2025
Will Johnson recently released his 10th solo album Diamond City in April 2025 and is currently touring as a member of Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit.
