George Johnson

I’ve been a guitar player for over 30 years. My influences are varied but I’ve always been drawn toward electronic type soundscapes much like those created by Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze and the like. In addition the guitarscapes improvised and performed by the likes of Robert Fripp, and Richard Pinhas taught me just how much could be created not only by synthesizers but also by the guitar.

Other genres have shaped my playing and musical preferences as well. Space/prog rock has always been on top of my list as some of the most creative music ever composed. Bands like Hawkwind, Amon Duul II, Pink Floyd...

These days I have immersed myself in ambient guitar soundscape music (guitarscapes.) Thanks to YouTube I know that there are many others out there globally that share the same passion.

I’ll post my work here from time to time as time allows. As well as guitar compositions I will also include pieces I created with my old Korg G5 synthesizer. I hope others will enjoy my creations.
