After headlining eco-friendly festivals like
Bonnaroo, Coachella, All Points West and Outside Lands,
Jack Johnson has decided to shift his focus from music to politics. Johnson
will enter the political-arena as an independent candidate, for what promises
to be the “greenest campaign of all time.” The Hawaiian-based
singer/songwriter, who will fly between campaign stops on his eco-friendly
plane Brushfire 12, promises to offset his campaign carbon footprint by
donating over $3,000 in wind credits between now and November. He also promises to play every festival “under the sun, until
the sun stops melting the polar icecaps.” According to reports, Johnson is
strongly considering choosing either Ben Harper or Michael Franti as his
running mate.
