Egan,John Magnolia City CD

2017 release from the Houston-based singer/songwriter and extraordinary guitarist. John Egan has a unique sound ranging from traditional country blues to a more modern songwriter style. He is a masterfully skilled guitar player who uses poetic lyrics and vintage resonator guitars to create an expressive personal music. Egan's guitar style includes, in effect, playing bass, lead, and percussion, all at the same time. He says, "the rarefied air where Lightnin' Hopkins met Townes Van Zandt serves as an inspiration and an ideal." He has immersed himself into his music resulting in a wide body of work that documents the progression of an artistic life.
