Jonny Hill, born Feri Gillming on 27 July 1940 in Graz, Austria, is a singer known for his contributions to pop music.

His breakthrough came in October 1969 with the schlager hit "Wieder in der Heimat", which reached number one on the charts. Throughout his career, he released numerous albums, including Ruf Teddybar Eins-Vier (1979), Jonny Hill (1982), and Konig Der Landstrasse (1989). Notable songs include "Ruf' Teddybär eins-vier", which earned him a Goldene Schallplatte, and "Louisiana", his entry for the German Eurovision Song Contest pre-selection in 1978. He also participated in various music competitions, such as the Grand Prix der Volksmusik in 1992 with "Zur groÃen Freiheit" and the Deutsche Schlager-Festspiele in 1998 with "Der Regenmann".
