Johnny Burnette (John Joseph Burnett), nato a Memphis il 25 marzo 1934 e morto a Clearlake il 14 agosto 1964, è stato un cantante statunitense considerato uno dei pionieri del rockabilly. Iniziò la sua carriera negli anni '50 con i suoi fratelli Dorsey e Billy, formando i Burnette Brothers. Il loro stile musicale era caratterizzato da una forte influenza country e blues, con riff di chitarra energici e testi che spesso trattavano temi di amore, perdita e vita quotidiana. Il successo arrivò nel 1956 con il singolo "Rockin' Robin", un brano che divenne un classico del rockabilly e contribuì a definire l'identità musicale del genere. Burnette continuò a registrare musica fino alla sua tragica morte in un incidente d'auto all'età di 30 anni. Tra i suoi brani più noti ricordiamo anche "Train Kept A-Rollin'", una canzone che ha influenzato generazioni di musicisti rock e blues, e "Little Rock City", un brano che celebra la sua città natale. La musica di Johnny Burnette continua ad essere apprezzata dagli appassionati di rockabilly e da chiunque cerchi un suono autentico e energico.
