Armstrong (bass), Bruce Guthrie (Drums) ______________________ Johnny Hiland You might think that being legally blind would be a hindrance to learning to play guitar, but Johnny Hiland’s incredible guitar virtuosity is evidence that this isn’t the case. Though this must have been somewhat of a challenge to overcome while initially learning to play, he took up the guitar at the very young age of 2. He won the “Talent America Contest” in New York City when he was only 10. Until he turned 15 he played in a bluegrass band with his sister, Jodi, and brother, Jerry. They called themselves “The 3 J’s.” He became interesting in a wider range of music in high school, particularly the great rock guitarists, among them Eddie Van Halen and Joe Satriani. He then attended the University of Southern Maine while studying history. The pull of performing music professionally turned out to be too strong to resist and he dropped out after 3 years to move to Nashville. Soon after arriving there he attracted attention while playing local clubs. He was the first Nashville musician to be offered an endorsement deal from Fender without first being signed to a label. In a bid to win Hiland attention, his manager called Steve Vai and left a demo of his on Via’s voicemail. This earned Hiland a record deal on Vai’s Favored Nations record label. He worked for two years preparing his self-titled debut album, which was comprised of country and rock instrumentals and released in 2004. He has also become a successful session guitarists for well-known artists such as Ricky Skaggs, Toby Keith, and Randy Travis. Other than his love of performing, Hiland has found a passion for instructing others on how to play. In 2014 teamed up with Truefire to release a series of instructional videos titled “Ten Gallon Guitar”. He also owns a studio that he uses to produce other musicians as well as record session guitar tracks for various artists. We’re sure you’ll see in these performances from the Dallas International Guitar Festival in 2016, that Hiland is on a plane all his own. He is the modern king of chicken pickin’ guitar playing. __________________ Please leave a comment below with your thoughts. If you found this video interesting, give it a like.
