Daniel Johnston Biography
Daniel Johnston is one of rock's most endearing outsider artists. Having battled manic depression his entire life, Johnston began self-releasing fractured pop songs in the late 1980s. After coming to the attention of several big-name underground rock acts, Johnston emerged as a bona fide cult star in the '90s. Although his music is often overshadowed by his illness and the occasionally bizarre behavior that is its byproduct, he's produced a body of work filled with lovely, lo-fi pop songs, some of which are downright brilliant. Johnston's profile soared in the new millennium when he was the subject of an acclaimed documentary and his artwork was featured in the 2006 Whitney Biennial art exhibit.
