Johnny Ferguson was an American country and pop singer, best known for his crossover hit "Angela Jones," which reached the Top 30 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1960. His style combined elements of traditional country with pop sensibilities, a synthesis that was characteristic of the Nashville sound popular in the late 1950s and early '60s. Ferguson's career, though brief, had a significant impact on the development of crossover music, demonstrating the potential for country music to appeal to a broader pop audience. He recorded for major labels like MGM and Capitol, but his success waned in the mid-1960s.
