This nigga overrated as fuck. Open E pentatonics and a hundred year old vocal cadence in every song. He never played a #9 chord in his life. Overrated as fuck cocaine hick. FUCK you.

>>130373040Nah he’s good. >b-but muh Hendrix chord!!Literally who cares
OP sucks cock by choice
>>130373040Just as a general rule, I don't really care for any artist who markets themselves as a savant at a particular instrument. Write good songs, and surprise us with a really great guitar part. But don't make "howdy fellas, I play the strings!" your whole thing. I know this sort of thing has always existed, but it really just screams social media influencer as opposed to actual recording artist.
Billy doesn't think he's as good as Tony Rice. Even if he did he would never say it.He's a good player who can make bluegrass approachable by young crowds while not offending old ones.There are better bluegrass guitar players under 40 but they are not as relatable for new young audiences.
Surfing With the Alien [Relativity, 1987]The latest guitar god calls up keywords like "taste" and "musicality" rather than "flash" and "heavy"--not only does he write melodies (and countermelodies), he fuckin edits them. Thus he delivers both the prowess cultists demand and the comfort they secretly crave. That it surprises him to hear the result behind insurance commercials only goes to show how little guitar gods know of the world. C+
