When you watch him play it seems impossible like the guitar has a direct connection to his bread. He thinks if a tune and his hands do the rest. He’s unreal.
Born in Maine, blind, very overweight. Just shows you that a powerful will and commitment trump all other factors, even when it looks like everything's against you. Johnny is probably the very best at what he does alive on the planet today.

Why am I drinking my coffee so fast? Johnny Hiland and Mike Barrow, two awesome guitar players, I love the chokes and double stops and that rhythm section: tighter than a crabs ass.
My brother was a MONSTER and these guys can play so fast&effortless its mechanical,in NO WAY am I putting them down for their great talent!... but it becomes repititious.My brother probably like Johnnie,Brent Mason made other players jealous&mad..my brother passed away@ 40, Rip little brother.
Just "discovered" Mr. Hiland. Hot damn that boy can play that gee tar. I hear chicken pickin' is only one of the genres he has mastered. This is going to be fun!
The guy on the right is an amazing guitarist. It's like it can't get any better. ...And then Johnny starts playing and that dude pawned his guitar and bought a triangle.
Johnny is very accurate and blazing fast without being boring like so many rock shredders today question is why isnt johnny more famous? It's obvious he is in a class all by himself what's with these guys from Texas? It seems like there born with a guitar in there hands! I love their gritty bluesy sound like srv had jr brown is from Texas also and is fantastic very clean very fast great tone tele player and steel guitar
Somewhere Danny Gatton is smiling. People down below have IDed the other picker as Nashville's Mike Durham. He acquits himself well. But can you imagine being the "other lead guitarist" onstage with Johnny? Or Danny before he died?
Both guys here are fantastic johnny has that Danny Gatton sound here who is this guy playing the blond tele? Hes just as good as johnny good old Texas guitar gunslinger like srv which would be a great match up srv vs johnny whoa that would be epic

Trump, yeah man!
I met Hiland years ago at a guitar show. Nice man. His guitar picking is nothing short of miraculous . He is a real
Wizard.
Props to Mike Barrow! I'd be terrified to have to follow THAT.
What about the drummer. Hot damn! What a tight rythm.
He Looks a Little Bit like Vinnie.....👍🏻
It almost looks like the drummer is trying to keep up with Johnny. The guy plays like a metronome.
What can I say they are all fantastic ☺️👍
All serious MF'ers
Still the most underrated guitar player in the world. Love Johnny so much.
he's pretty well respected in guitar circles playing with such people as Joe Satriani and Steve Vai . also some big name country talents .
I just discovered the guy in 2019. I'm all Johnny vids right now. Can't get enough!!
Me toooooo!!!
i absolutely agree.........simply brilliant...the both of them....
I don't believe he is underrated

As far as I'm concerned, Johnny Hiland is the Shawn Lane of country guitar.

"It's a good job these Nashville pickers stay in Nashville because we'd all be out of a job"
Jeff Beck
Flat out amazing
Dang that song is moving!! Never heard it that fast! Drummer is getting a workout!
All these musicians are impressive. Johnny is an absolute master. That solo at 2:20 is really something.
I met Johnny at The B3 guitar show in Philly. The most humble guy and yet scary to hear him play.
God Bless him.
As he said at the end, that felt good!
How have I gone so long without hearing this guy?
He's the most versatile guitar player I've ever heard in my life. And I'm 62!!!
I could listen to Johnny all day long. Mike is a great player too!!!
That tele sounds beautifull to my ears, but Hilands playing is fabulous.
Country shredding at its best!
Drummer is another level. much like johnny
Reminds me of Albert Lee..Great players
One of the best. If not the best picker out there!!
This gentleman’s ability to play so effortlessly is amazing and admirable.
Love it.👍💪
Johnny is a national treasure. Mike is another outstanding picker too. But Johnny man, he's something else.
inhuman speed, accuracy, phrasing, touch, creativity, you name it, Johnny's got it. It's just insane!
Extremely versatile I wished I could do what he does on the guitar he's amazing
I'd settle for being about to do a tenth of what he does
My brother was a MONSTER and these guys can play so fast&effortless its mechanical,in NO WAY am I putting them down for their great talent!... but it becomes repititious.My brother probably like Johnnie,Brent Mason made other players jealous&mad..my brother passed away@ 40, Rip little brother.

Excellent band! -Poland drummer country.
Go Johnny Go!!!!

awesome drummer
Just "discovered" Mr. Hiland. Hot damn that boy can play that gee tar. I hear chicken pickin' is only one of the genres he has mastered. This is going to be fun!
Johnny Hiland, the coolest thing to come out of Maine since Clarence White.
Bruutal! that's why Hiland is one of my favs!
the bass player is having the time of his life...he gets to see these guys uo front...and gets to play
Барабанщик кайфует!!А Джони как всегда крут!!!👍
Bravo jonnnnnnyyy
Ashamed I missed this in Dallas
Love these guys!
BRAVO!
just wow!!
Anybody that doesn’t know of him should look up more of his stuff.
Johnny’s a national treasure.
Wow who knew Johnny could sing. Impressive
Way to B-bend without the bender!!!! GGGOOOOO Johnny!!!!!
JH......Legend !!
magic
Johnny Hiland and Redd Volkeart may be the best tele players around these days. mos60
Yeah baby! Go on and pick it one time for me
Them ol' boys are having a lot,,,,,of FUN !!!! Oh Yeah!!!
Outstanding playing, great band. The "other guy" is Mike Durham, another real good Nashville guy.
The 'other guy' - no slouch!
He’s real good. Poor bugger trying to play at Jinny’s tempo though 🤣 Wouldn’t fancy that.
Johnny hiland , i discovered you today and i already love you so much !!!
Excellent 👍🎶 Ma version préférée de That Alright mama! 😎
Great picking by both guitarists! Thanks for posting.
You're crazy..Very very good thanks ..
JH always throws it down!! Tight band all around here.
Absolutely amazing
I was there and that was some incredible stuff to see live! Johnny is a chicken pickin master!
I wish i could see a live like this. In Europe we have no chance. I wish Johnny come to my country.
Awesomeness
The guy on the right is an amazing guitarist. It's like it can't get any better.
...And then Johnny starts playing and that dude pawned his guitar and bought a triangle.
That boy bends them strings so far he knocked his eyes out the sockets...
Wow what a great guitar player
Legend!!
Heavy metal anyone? They could never play and feel good like these guys do! This is music. The other... is to make you sick!
what a take....wow!!!!
The Best no more no less😎🎶
Johnny is very accurate and blazing fast without being boring like so many rock shredders today question is why isnt johnny more famous? It's obvious he is in a class all by himself what's with these guys from Texas? It seems like there born with a guitar in there hands! I love their gritty bluesy sound like srv had jr brown is from Texas also and is fantastic very clean very fast great tone tele player and steel guitar
He’s actually not from Texas!
Clayton Gillaspy Johnny is a maniac! He's from the great state of Maine! Yessaaaaaaaa!
Except Johnny is from Maine, and Junior Brown is from Indiana. I agree with you about the awesome tone though!
Sir, I’ll have more of that, if you please
Sooper awesome
Holllly mother !
This is so fucking brilliant!
HOLY SHIT !!!!!!
So F***ing good!
I didn't know he could sing like that.😎
And hats off to mike barrow the 2nd guitarist
He's no slouch either!
Somewhere Danny Gatton is smiling. People down below have IDed the other picker as Nashville's Mike Durham. He acquits himself well. But can you imagine being the "other lead guitarist" onstage with Johnny? Or Danny before he died?
Bob Laughlin Still I can't believe it , in Danny Gatton death ,,, BTW ,Johnny is great guitar player also !!!
Absolutely awsome chickin pickin. Keep it up Dude. Floyd Watson.
dude with the blond tele plays excellent. i'd completely ch1t myself if i had to follow johnny.
buena musica saludos desde el jardin del eden
awesomeness
It’s Mike Durham not Mike Barrow
Yup ,the tele at 4.15 to 4.25 is in a league beyond the EBMM ......even Hiland can't get the the MM to sound like that tele
I think Music Man guitars are UGLY and do NOT have the tone Fender has,Strat or Tele.Albert lee can't make one have the tone either!.
Both guys here are fantastic johnny has that Danny Gatton sound here who is this guy playing the blond tele? Hes just as good as johnny good old Texas guitar gunslinger like srv which would be a great match up srv vs johnny whoa that would be epic
Hi Super wykonanie:):)
Isn't that Mike Durham not Mike Barrow?
3:51 Bless you hahaha
rene osvaldo lol
The other guitar man, deserved his name in the title.
Is no, not yet, is, not this time !!!
How would you like to be that poor bloke who has to follow Johnny. On any other stage he'd be the man.
MR. Durahm
Que pancada de som 🤪👏👏👏👏👏
Fuck.!!! That was SMOKIN'..!! I WISH I could play like that.😶
AC/DC all the way. Who's with me? Flick of the Switch.
Jonny can play but man that blonde tele tone murders that ernie ball
It sounds like he's playing it clean too, which is all more the impressive.
i guess that's what you called making "drum faces" - NICE!!!
Jonny was killing it. who's the guitar player with the tele he was killing it too.
Fender telecaster best Guitar in the world.
I hate the telecaster ... shit sound ...
I'm old enough to remember when I used to think I was a good guitar player....
Johnny can sure pick a guitar!
Johnny is losing some weight. Good to see.
💪💪💪💪💪
I just watched Luca Olivieri perform this tune and then watched Hiland do it and Johnny smoked him.
Note to crowd, nobody died !
