Daniel Johnston is the easiest understanding of the term, Outsider Artist. Daniel’s melodies and endearing lyrics are sweet. Daniel’s influence on Kurt Cobain was part of Nirvana’s naive essence.
Joyful Noise is releasing a Daniel Johnston boxset called Daniel Johnston In the 20th Century October 31st, 2025 which is a definitive collection of 16 remastered cassette albums rebuilt by longtime collaborator Kramer.
