playing guitar at 13, and began his musical career at 16.
By 18 he was on the road along with his brother, Burton,
performing with Grammy-winning Zydeco artist Rockin’

and the Road – including touring the U.S. and Europe
playing 250 nights a year for four years. Now in Austin,
Texas – billed as the live music capital of the World, Gaar

and “Americana music scene.” |

This was everything "soulful singin' guitar lickin'..." review promised it
to be and more! The first day I listened to it, I just kept playing it over
and over...got me through the work day. Then I played it in the car for others
that evening. Awesome guitar, great singing, amazing songwriting. I definitely
want more John Gaar Band music!
