Art Johnson, Jazz Guitarist (1945 - 2018)

A lyrical guitarist and violinist, Art Johnson has a remarkable resume across a variety of genres. He arrived in Los Angeles in 1969 and was soon playing and recording with a new group called the Advancement, which included vibraphonist Lynn Blessing. Soon he was working with Willie Bobo, Judee Sill, Paul Horn, Tim Weisberg, Barbra Streisand, and John Klemmer, recording with the latter four. Johnson's musical experiences went way beyond jazz, including playing eccentric country tunes with Gas, Food & Lodging, being featured on violin, mandolin, and guitar with Pat Boone, touring with Tim Buckley (1974-1975), movie soundtracks, studio work, and working with Lena Horne, O.C. Smith, the San Diego Symphony, and even Engelbert Humperdinck. Johnson taught jazz guitar at San Diego State University, and has recorded duo albums with pianist Duane Smith for Mobile Fidelity (1984) and with pianist Joanne Grauer
