Joseph "Smokey" Johnson (born November 14, 1936, New Orleans) is an American drummer. He is one of the musicians, session players, and songwriters who have served as the backbone for New Orleans' output of jazz, funk, blues, soul, and R&B music.
Johnson stopped playing drums after suffering a stroke in 1993. Johnson was forced to leave his home in the wake of Hurricane Katrina in September 2005. Johnson is now a resident of Musicians' Village, a Habitat for Humanity project in the Upper Ninth Ward of New Orleans.
