Johnnie Gee was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on September 29th, 1959 to Elgie and D.W Gee, into a family of seven brothers and sisters.

When Mama Gee, herself a blues lover, noticed her sons’ growing interest in music and performing, she devoted herself to the careful development of their nascent talents.

Through hard work and dedication, Johnnie, Dewitt, Jerome, these three brothers and other friends became the Midwest band, “The Exclusive ‘Step By Step’ Band”.

The group began performing professionally in and around Milwaukee and Chicago in 1969; later that year, the siblings took their polished song-and-dance act to New York’s Brunswick Records.

‘The Step By Step Band’ turned the place out, winning over Nat Tarnopol and a label contract with Brunswick Records.

Johnnie Gee is currently back on the scene with his new ‘EP’ “One More Time”, recorded May 2005 and distributed/released in September 2005.

The original Album that started Johnnie Gee’s career has just been re-issued by several large distribution companies such as JVC, Victor Ent, BMG and other major distributors.

Last year 2005, Johnnie Gee toured with Virgin Records artist ‘Brook Valentine’s’ Dad “Hollywood Hawkman”, thru out Texas, and did a lot of media and radio coverage with Deja (Hawkman’s Son), from ‘Subliminal’ Records.

Johnnie has kept up with all the trends of music, in fact Johnnie Gee owns Sidetraxx Records who has recorded several big names such as; Bizzy Bone, Jr. Mafia (Nortorus B.I.G clique), Mopreme Shakaur, Gansta Nip, Willie Morrison of (The Platters), Ghetto Boys, Double R and many more.
