Artist Biography
Available in:
Internationally touring Nashville recording artist Justin Johnson has been hailed by Guitar World as a “must-see act”, dubbed “The Wizard” for his mastery of stringed instruments, and recognized as Slidestock International Slide Guitar Champion. He has earned endorsements from guitar builders around the world, published educational books on music theory and technique, and released a series of instructional DVDs.
In 2014, Justin Johnson recorded his debut double album, “Smoke & Mirrors,” a celebration of the art, history, and traditions behind handmade roots instruments.
Along with 18 modern-built roots instruments representing builders from all over the world, the album resurrects the voices of 8 of the oldest cigar box guitars and banjos known to exist… instruments procured on loan from the International Cigar Box Guitar Museum. Having never previously been recorded, these fragile relics emanate voices on the album that would otherwise have been lost to time.
"Smoke & Mirrors" saw it's official release in March of 2014, as Johnson took the stage to present his signature approach to Roots music to thousands of fans at Port Fairy Folk Festival, Australia's largest and longest-running Folk Festival, thus ushering in the "2014 Smoke & Mirrors World Tour," which spanned Australia, North America, Europe, and the UK.
