Jacob Johnson

Jacob Johnson has graced the LAFTA main stage twice now, bringing fresh material, positive energy and virtuosity each time. Presenting both cover songs and original material, he stretches the boundaries of what the guitar can do, whatever the song: percussion, two-handed fretting and fingerboard tapping, as well as intricate fingerpicking. No Depression Magazine states, “The guitar is not just an instrument in the hands of Jacob Johnson ─ it’s his soul-mate.” We couldn’t agree more. If you like your singer/songwriters to come with a generous side of instrumental innovation, you’ll want to come see Jacob close out the LAFTA season with this show.
