Chuck Johnson’s impact on the contemporary guitar world continues to be
felt. His first two solo records signaled the arrival of a
unique player, steeped in various forms of playing and influence, yet distinctly modern. Johnson eschews a weathered
traditionalism for the wide-scope expanse of 21st Century Americana.
On his third album, Blood Moon Boulder, Johnson reaches a compositional
peak in a nod to the picturesque naturalism of the American landscape.
The dynamics of his range can be felt on this singular record, a
soundtrack-like listen that rewards the ear with rich detail.
