John Fohl

Since his arrival in New Orleans in 1996, John Fohl has become one of the busiest guitarists anywhere. He's released two records, 1998's I Got News For You and this year's Time Ain't Waitin', and is cultivating a successful solo career that keeps him in demand locally and abroad. Both recordings feature John's formidable acoustic guitar skills and rich, soulful voice in an intimate setting with some special guests sitting in. In addition, John's eclectic style has become key to many of the Crescent City's top acts. Whether funkin' it up with The Joe Krown Organ Combo or George Porter jr, playing rock and soul with Tommy Malone, swinging with Ingrid Lucia or backing up blues legends Pinetop Perkins and Hubert Sumlin when they come to town, all agree; John comes to play!
