With virtuosity, Monte Montgomery is able to elicit sounds from his acoustic guitar that one would expect to be played by an electrified band of several musicians - although we are only dealing with a trio. Montgomery has been honored with multiple awards and Guitar Player magazine named him one of the "50 Greatest Guitarists of All Time." He's been called "Hendrix with an acoustic guitar," and his spectacular playing ("six strings hooked up to dynamite"), as well as his songwriting and voice, have made him a celebrated live act beyond the borders of his native Texas. Monte Montogomery has neatly pushed the boundaries of acoustic guitar playing. His legendary reputation has spread like bushfire since he performed at Austin City Limits. Countless articles have been written about him since. They describe him as "Evil Knievel of Guitar," "Six Strings attached to Dynamite," "The Answer to Fermi Paradox," or "The Acoustic Shred Master."
