Mike Johnson (born 1946) is an African-American country music singer, songwriter, and yodeler living in Arlington, Virginia. Also known as Country Music's No.1 Black Yodeler, and Black Yodel No.1.

Raised in a Catholic family in Washington, DC, Johnson began yodeling in the 1950s, influenced by the music of Jimmie Rodgers, Gene Autry, and Roy Rogers, and by the "Tarzan yell" of actor Johnny Weissmuller.[1] Johnson enlisted in the US Navy in 1965 and served two Vietnam tours from 1967 to 1969 on the USS Constellation CVA-64. Later he became a truck driver,[2] in September 1981. From his first professional recording session at Globe Recording Studio in April 1981 in Nashville, he released his first 45rpm single "King of the Fish." [3] Johnson founded Pata del Lobo Music publishing in 1982, and Roughshod Records and You and Me Records in 1987.[3] Johnson has since released 2 45rpm vinyls, 11 cassettes, and 58 CDs.
