"Guitarist
Johnny A. was born in Malden, MA and grew
up in the North Shore area of Boston, where he led bands that played every
major and not-so-major venue in the area as well as a host of roadside bars
in the New England area. He eventually chose to become a sideman, playing
with such artists as Bobby Whitlock, Mingo
Lewis, and J. Geils frontman Peter
Wolf. In his six year stint as Wolf's guitarist, Johnny A. recorded
on the albums "Fool's Parade"
(1999) and the one which he co-produced with Wolf, 1996's "Long
Line." Johnny A. was also a member of Wolf's House Party 5 band
and various incarnations of his acoustic ensembles, which toured extensively
throughout the United States and Japan.
In late 1999, Johnny A. placed himself front and center with an all-new
guitar instrumental project and album, titled "Sometime
Tuesday Morning" on Aglaophone Records.
The album included original material as well as covers of the Beatles'
"Yes It Is," Jimmy Webb's "Wichita
Lineman" and Willie Cobbs' blues
classic "You Don't Love Me." The album was embraced by radio stations,
critics and fans alike." — Ann Wickstrom |
