It has been a remarkable year for the singer, songwriter and live performer who has been a big feature on this year’s X Factor.
Since his elimination last month Johnston is now en route around the country as part of a massive national tour.
Having visited Mount Isa a couple of times before, the country-born New South Wales performer said the city reminded him of home.
In town for two performances at the Overlander hotel, Johnston said Relay for Life participants could also expect a performance from him including a couple of laps at the Mount Isa Rugby Ground.
Since his first appearance on Idol five years ago, Johnston has racked up more than 1000 live shows, traversing venues across the country, alongside a series of international shows, including in London and Las Vegas.
His biggest tour was the 50in50 Tour, which raised money for the Australian Children’s Music Foundation.
Johnstone is set to release a new single next month called How am I to Know with an album to follow.
Catch James Johnston performing live at the Overlander Hotel tonight and tomorrow night from 8pm.
