Guitarist, songwriter and bandleader SONNY LANDRETH has been hailed as “one of the finest guitarists the USA has ever produced” (Rock & Blues Muse), “an innovator on the order of Eddie Van Halen” (All About Jazz) and “probably the most underestimated musician on the planet” (Eric Clapton). Over the course of his four-plus decade career he’s recorded fourteen albums, been nominated for three GRAMMY® awards, named The Americana Music Association Instrumentalist of the Year and Blues Foundation Blues Music Award Winner for Best Guitarist, and performed seven times by invitation at Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival. He’s also been a famed sideman for performers that include Clifton Chenier, John Hiatt and Jimmy Buffett, and his signature song ‘Congo Square’ has become a Zydeco/Blues standard recorded by artists such as The Neville Brothers, John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers and Derek Trucks.
