Music Premiere: Paige King Johnson Puts Her Spin on Clay Walker’s 1994 Hit Single, “If I Could Make a Living”

Paige King Johnson, celebrated as a beacon of authentic country music storytelling, is excited to unveil her newest single today with her spin on Clay Walker’s version of “If I Could Make a Living.” With a legacy enriched by captivating narratives and melodious sincerity, Paige continues to enchant her growing audience, drawing on her roots that intertwine the grit of Loretta Lynn and the poignant lyricism of Patsy Cline. The launch of this latest track promises to add another vibrant layer to her already impressive repertoire.

“As a ’90s kid, I have fond memories of being in the backseat singing along to, in my opinion, some of the best music ever made – ’90s country. Very high on that list was Clay Walker’s version of “If I Could Make A Living.” It had it all — great instrumentation, catchy writing, made you wanna two step, and not one, but TWO key changes! It really doesn’t get any better than that. So, I decided I wanted to put my own spin on that classic, and we had a ball in the studio doing so. I’m excited for the world to get to hear this version!”

About Paige King Johnson:
Born in a quiet North Carolina town just 22 miles south of Raleigh, as a young 9-year-old girl, Paige King Johnson spent her summers under the crepe myrtles imitating the styles of Loretta, Patsy, Waylon, and Merle. Having a grandpa as her biggest fan also meant receiving the gift of her first guitar – a baby Taylor – and enrolling in lessons. As she grew older, Johnson added “opening act” to her resume, supporting chart-topping artists like Kane Brown, Gabby Barrett, Clint Black, Scotty McCreery, Oliver Anthony, Kylie Morgan, Neal McCoy, Diamond Rio and more. Upon starting school at Belmont University for Music Business, Johnson honed in on the magic that had heavily influenced her as a child: the art of storytelling through songwriting. The famous Bluebird Café was just one of many writers’ circuits around Nashville that provided a safe space for Johnson to meet other writers. In the last eight years, Johnson has traveled back and forth between Nashville and the Carolinas, playing shows like CMA Fest and the North Carolina State Fair while running her dinner theater, Country on the Outskirts of Town, that she founded in high school. A five-time Carolina Country Music Award-Winner for Female Vocalist of the Year, Country Emerging New Artist, Songwriter of the Year, Single of the Year, and Tour of the Year, Johnson’s devoted homegrown fan base continues to expand farther than just her backyard.
