Jonny Lang Artist Snapshot:

Blues guitar prodigy Jonny Lang spent his boyhood in Fargo, North Dakota, where he began taking guitar lessons at age 12. By the time he was 13, in 1995, he was leading his guitar teacher's band, with whom he made a self-released album. Lang was signed to A&M Records the following year, making a splash in the blues world with both his precociousness and his pure instrumental prowess. As he matured, so did his music, and his 2006 album, TURN AROUND, won the young bluesman a Grammy award.

Review

Entertainment Weekly (1/31/97, p.58) - "The ripe, vibrant voice of contemporary blues singer and guitarist Lang is so compelling, it would be an exceptional major-label debut even if he weren't only 16..." - Rating: B+

Title Note

Personnel: Jonny Lang (vocals, acoustic & electric guitar, electric sitar); Dennis Morgan (acoustic guitar); Ted Larsen, Billy Franzee, Kevin Bowe (guitar); Jack Holder (guitar, Hammond B-3 organ); Pat Hayes (harmonica); Art Edmaiston (saxophone, horns); Larry McCabe (trombone, horns); Dedrick Davis (horns); Bruce McCabe (piano, Fender Rhodes, Wurlitzer piano, Clavinet, keyboards, background vocals); Ricky Peterson, Tony Black (Hammond B-3 organ); Tony Black (synthesizer); David Smith (bass); Rob Stupka (drums); Steve Potts (drums, percussion); Bekka Bramlett, Marcia Langseth, Heidi Jo, David Z (background vocals).

Recorded at Oar Fin Studios, Minneapolis, Minnesota and House Of Blues, Memphis, Tennessee.

Nipping at the heels of wiz-kid blues guitarist Kenny Wayne Shepherd, who debuted at age 18, comes 16-year-old Jonny Lang, the most soulful guitar slinger ever to make it out of junior high school. Lang's debut, much like Shepherd's LEDBETTER HEIGHTS, features a mix of choice covers and co-written originals. But whereas HEIGHTS leans in a Delta-blues direction, Lang's blues has more of an R&B flavor.

The Clavinet and Hammond B-3 organ on the title track and "Hit The Ground Running" help give LIE TO ME a funky swagger. As for influences, Lang's choices of Ike Turner's "Matchbox" and Syl Johnson's "Back For A Taste Of Your Love" show a taste for rousing shuffles and Memphis soul. Lang shows his commercial instincts by wrapping up the album with "When I Come To You" and the acoustic "Missing Your Love," two songs that wouldn't sound out of place on a recent Eric Clapton album.
