About

A confessional artist whose 'sludge pop' encapsulates the raw emotions of modern life.

Her debut single, 'a kanye rant,' set the tone for her subsequent releases, each adding layers of introspection and emotional depth. From the EP 'worm human' to the full-length 'Ghastly' and 'The Bummer Album,' Warm Human continues to evolve, exploring themes of loneliness, self-reflection, and the struggle to find meaning in a chaotic world. With each release, Johnston solidifies her position as a voice for the disenfranchised and the introspective, crafting music that resonates deeply with listeners seeking solace in their solitude. Whether it’s the melancholic 'pity party time' or the biting social commentary of 'that eminem song where he mentions that phil collins song,' Warm Human’s work is a reflection of the complexities of contemporary life.
