Living oceanside in Hawaii gave Jack Johnson two things - a career as a professional surfer with Quiksilver and a laid-back lifestyle which would inspire his chilled blend of folk and blues. Splitting his time between film making and music, his debut 'Brushfire Fairytales' emerged in 2001 followed by 'On And On' (2003) and the slickly produced 'In Between Dreams' in 2005.
