2022,.....he's already 41,....blows me away,...he's all grown up. Been listening to him since hit the scene. An incredible talent. Such a talented young man, when he first began recording.

[@douglasstaggs6796]

Turned 42 on January 29: his wife's 43rd & my nephew's 45th.

[@Davett53]

@@douglasstaggs6796 Indeed,..I forgot we all keep getting older. Ha! Discovered Jonny's music when he was just a young lad, and he was sort of a phenomena. So talented at such a young age,.....blessed with a very adult sounding voice, too. Thanks for your input.

[@user-ve6vq8we5q]

He is so serene and calm here.. so different then what I see when he sings

[@user-ve6vq8we5q]

He is so very talented

[@user-ve6vq8we5q]

He is so talented

[@sammydome]

He is so real even shy But on stage he rocks...... Please come to Canada!!!!!!

[@Angelface11]

Wow his voice sounds nothing like I thought it woyld. His singing voice is simply spectacular

[@douglasstaggs6796]

Total respect for him

[@daviddolin2560]

A very humble kid. Gives his thanks to God for his talents. A genuine good soul. Glad I found you on here Johnny Lang,I was searching for something different. You may not realize it..or maybe you think you aren't doing enough,But you are definitely doing God's work. A soldier for Christ.God bless you and yours.

[@SoberSantaCruz]

I just found him 20 minutes ago...this kid is a White Stevie Ray/ Joe Bonamassa but a CHRISTIAN dude. 🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@karenvolpe6200]

He doesn't even look the same from the older videos of him

[@JohnMeyer-nn3nq]

What'a beautiful human being,he is pure of soul and has a wonderful life that he chose.He had a great way of handling the his road May God Bless Jonny and his future in the 💙 blues.

[@ForeignForever123]

Saw him last night. Wow! Amazing talent. Loved it. Warsaw Poland, July 9th, 2014. Blew the place away. Go Jonny!

[@MsStoneWoman]

With all due respect, the interviewer in these 3 videos is so lackluster and b-o-r-i-n-g, it's amazing that Jonny was able to get through this interview at all. Jonny was a great kid and turned into a wonderful, caring man. Given the negative influences so prevalent in the music industry, it's nothing short of a miracle that he has emerged unscathed and grounded in his faith in God. It's wonderful and attests to his good upbringing and strength of character. I pray he will always stay on the right track, and I believe he will. He is so talented. I'm glad I was turned onto him with his very first album. It's been a real pleasure watching him grow into the amazing man he is today.

[@arnieb9813]

Jonny, great interview. I loved your older style soul stirring blues, but I understand the turn around and the different kind of 'walking away'. You've had the wisdom to make the right decisions. Congrats.

[@sylviabenally4370]

Love your music. Your voice is GREAT! Lots of emotional feeling when you sing. Beautiful.

[@barbhansen1378]

You have always been my favorite from your beginning!

[@SandyMoyers-gq8sd]

He is so humble. Love Johnny Lang ❤

[@jeffreyschnoldt5388]

A great blues player he is..

[@daviddolin2560]

Yoda... Is that you?

[@michaelosborne4050]

I discovered Johnny yesterday .. I believe he is an amazing talent .. I like Colin James too .. I’m from Canada ….. USA and Canada has some similar talents .

[@karenvolpe6200]

I also like Colin James

[@diannerebedew259]

I wish he would come back.

[@SimirJohnson]

Hoping his voice is good enough to create new music some day. I never had the pleasure of seeing him live and Im guessing that will never happen. Whole lotta talent in that humble man.

[@user-pc9cr5gt1m]

Son I am 64 years old, I love the blues but this boy is fire

[@samanthadillard5720]

i just love em!

[@parrd962]

Ask him about pickups and wood and fret wire and scale length and tone things pertaining to guitars and what he likes about them. what did he think about meeting and playing with Phil Keaggy.

[@58jumps]

Grit, bluesy soul, and lyrical philosophy- all with some great guitar playing. Redlight was his first song for me that turned me into a fan and Lie To Me sealed the deal. Hope he finds all the best for him giving us his best.

[@marysmyth8687]

He is total class. Listen to his performance at the Peter Greene tribute concert in London last year. Fantastic

[@CarolReneeWilkes-ek2dh]

I grew up listening to the blues and you Jonny Lang your bad ass I would love for you to come to Louisiana around Baton Rouge or Lafeyette

[@susanraynor56]

Loved the 3 interviews, you gave it your full attention so did I . I have only just watched you on the FLeetwood Mac tribute for PeterGreen and enjoyed it like everyone else did. So I found this looking into your music, and felt I should leave a comment to a fellow Christian. Look after yourself, and hope to bump into you again sometime. Best Wishes, Sue . Nantwich , Cheshire. UK.

[@1besieged]

You should do a few Skynyrd cover songs, I bet you would be great at them. Nice interview, I hope your kids all end up singing, your voice is great!

[@user-tm9vr6fo9p]

Jonny 🎶🎶🎶👍👍👍👍👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿

[@loseweight4life]

He's so good. Having vocal trouble now and can't sing. Hope this changes.

[@TheJmull23]

is he wearing a KillSwitch Engage Tee?? \m/

[@tenceeg.3266]

Hey Jonny, it's wonderful to embrace your religion and Love God. Just remember, your will is the way......Love you

[@trey5153]

His voice so different then singing voice

[@cheesetoast8312]

Thank Goodness his parents were cool. That area is not a safe area for brown people in general. Good to see someone rise above that and show appreciation out loud.

[@claireroman-zp4ql]

You got the pioo poop es man

[@claireroman-zp4ql]

Thats not what i said gees Youve got the pipes i said Lovely melodies

[@joancarr5812]

Johnny lang invew talk

[@scottmorse8847]

Is someone smoking in the room or was it a fly? I notice Jonny fanning away …something a couple times

[@FaceCulture]

From what I recall it was a pesky fly...

[@anothercomment3451]

Parents "supporting" going into the perverse, excessive world of the purposeful music & enterTrainment 'industry' ... is sad & bad. Glad Lang survived.

[@kclements2293]

I am shocked. Listening to his music then listening to him in an interview. He’s downright feminine.... shocking

[@silverliningvillages5406]

Perhaps very shy and introverted which is why he seldom looks at the audience during his performances. It is very internal it seems for him.

[@jortepap]

He talks in a normal way. Nothing feminine. Men who think they always need to talk with a deep and husky voice.. THOSE are the insecure men! 😄 Jonny doesn't need that shit. He is a boss.

[@Usedtobeagrl]

He seems wonderful!

[@nelsonhibbert5267]

Yeah the long flowing locks, lactating breasts and floral dress really threw me off there for a minute....
