Jack Johnson

Jack Johnson is a world-renowned musician whose creative journey began with making surf films with close friends, which became a foundation for his broader artistic career in music and filmmaking. His evolution from surfer to filmmaker to musician is documented in the new film "Surfilmusic," directed by Emmett Malloy, which traces how his lived experiences in and out of the water shaped his songwriting. Johnson grew up surfing and making music in Hawai'i, where he wrote many of the songs that shaped his career.
