Sion Hill

Sion Hill is the stage name for Irish singer/songwriter, producer & recording artist Nathan Johnston.
After 6 years performing under his stage name with soul-pop project 'Sion Hill,' and touring Europe with the likes of Pete Doherty, A-ha and Alice Merton along with sold out shows across Germany, the U.K. and most recently, 'The Workmans Club' in Dublin, Johnston bought back the rights to new songs from his former record label and has now gone independent.

2022/2023 will see him release 2 new records, the first being a collaboration with 'Angels of Libra' a 10 piece soul outfit from Hamburg with a sound reminiscent of Air, Khruangbin or Ennio Morricone.

The first single off the album is the moody and seductive “Angel Of Libra” which was released on June 3rd 2022 with Berlin-based label Waterfall Records, and received heavy airplay on Radio Eins (Radio 1) in Germany.

The second single, 'All Your Love' was released on August 26th, a groovy uptempo soul track featuring vocals reminiscent of Anderson Paak. The band received its first U.K. airplay when the song debuted on BBC Radio 6 on the Craig Charles Funk & Soul Show. ‘All Your Love’ achieved significant playlisting success on spotify along with heavy rotation on Italian radio Contatto for 4 weeks in a row.

The full 10 track record, 'Nathan Johnston & The Angels of Libra' is set for release on November 4th, 2022 and will be available on limited edition vinyl online and from selected stores.

The second record set to be released is a solo effort that was recorded in 2021 in a cottage in Clifden in the west of Ireland with producer Kevin Brennan featuring a more acoustic, laid back sound than that of Johnston's earlier work under the Sion Hill moniker.

The solo album is set for release on Johnston & Brennan's own label Dead Rent Records in Autumn 2023.
