LM 17-09 Americana Roots Blues Guitar with Justin Johnson

“for the LOVE of Music” with Sara Troy and her guest Justin Johnson, on air from February 28th

You have not heard guitar like this before, the blues sultry exuding out of each note, and the uniqueness of the guitars made from anything from a spade to oil cans, just shows you, that when you ARE the music you can make anything into music.

Justin Johnson has toured the world as a performing musician throughout mainland Australia and Tasmania, Europe, The United Kingdom, and coast to coast in North America.

Justin Johnson’s original song “Midnight at the Crossroads,” from his Smoke & Mirrors double album, was licensed to Florentine Films for Ken Burns’ PBS documentary film “Jackie Robinson.”

“In the Pines” from Smoke & Mirrors was licensed to ad agency Wieden + Kennedy for the “Dodge Brothers” national ad campaign for Dodge Motor Company.

“Grinnin in Your Face” from Smoke & Mirrors is featured on NPR Back Porch Music’s “Best of Back Porch Music Vol. 18: Old Enough to Know Better” 2015 Compilation Album.
