GRAMMY-nominated artist Johnny Venus—best known as one half of Atlanta’s genre-bending powerhouse EARTHGANG—is carving out a world entirely his own. With his latest single, “Nightmares,” out now via SinceThe80s/Epic Records, Venus ventures deeper into the shadows of his evolving solo sound. Haunting, introspective, and unmistakably personal, the track offers another glimpse into an artist unafraid to explore new territory as he steps further into his next chapter.
“Nightmares” slips into the space where love stops feeling like a dream and starts keeping you awake. Johnny Venus wrestles with the intoxicating pull between devotion and obsession, giving voice to the racing thoughts, restless nights, and quiet chaos that surface when you’ve given someone the power to matter this much.
But this isn’t a song about perfect romance. It’s about what happens when the fantasy fades and the fear creeps in—the anxiety of losing something real, the vulnerability of loving without a safety net, and the unsettling realization that the deeper you fall, the more there is to lose. With “Nightmares,” Johnny turns inward and gives the darker side of love room to speak.
In August 2025, Johnny Venus opened the door to a world of his own with Shooter, his debut solo EP and the first chapter in his evolution as a standalone artist. Now, his journey expands with his forthcoming debut album—expected to drop later this year it is a deeply intimate body of work that examines love in all its dimensions. For now stream “Nightmares” below!
