Discography
“I have been lucky to have played with and in some cases learned first hand from great musicians such as Harvey Mandel (canned Heat/John Mayall); Stan Bronstein (Elephants Memory/John Lennon); Bo Diddley; John Cephas; Thom Doucette (Allman Brothers) and Warren Haynes; I’ve also performed with Dan Ackroyd and opened up for the likes of Johnny Winter, Jeff Healy and Foghat”.
This veteran of the South Florida Blues scene employs a library of riffs from Freddy King to Otis Rush and Stevie Ray Vaughn along with his own original material off his debut album “Lyin’ Eyes”. His vast influences and experiences take him to the place where roots of Blues meet the hard edge of classic Rock & Roll.
Midnite Johnny has released CDs including ‘Lyin’ Eyes’ and ‘Boogie and Blues Review’. His material has also been included on the compilation CD ‘Showcasing the Blues – Vol 2’ with ‘Lyin’ Eyes’ was featured in the soundtrack of the HBO movie “Suicide Blonde”
