Sonny Landreth

New frontiers fit nicely atop the boundary-breaking career of singer-songwriter and slide guitar icon Sonny Landreth. From performing live with Buddy Guy and John Hiatt in theaters and arenas around the United States, to post-New Orleans Jazz Fest jamming on bayou rhythms with Oteil Burbridge and Johnny Vidacovich, to recording and playing live with ukulele phenom Jake Shimabukuro at The Blue Note in Hawaii, its been a noteworthy couple of years for the two-time Grammy nominee. And those are just his side projects.One of the things I love about collaborations with other artists is the element of surprise, Landreth says of his continually expanding musical horizons. When the chemistry is there, its always inspiring to find new twists and turns that up the game creatively.
