Monte Montgomery

I got to see this guy in Oklahoma City a few months ago. I was absolutely blown away. I saw him on educational channel playing in a cave too.

i don't know why this guy doesn't get more love on TGP.

i make it a point to see him every time he comes around.

Monte scares the crap out of me.

I was tempted to cut off my fingers and never attempt guitar again!

More people should definitely know about Monte. I too am surprised he hasn't been mentioned here on TGP a few more times.

An amazing talent for sure.

Bump for a little more love.

Seen him live 12 times since 1998. Simply amazing, and a real down-to-earth guy...had the chance to talk to him several times, always gracious and just a cool guy. Ya gotta see him live though to truly appreciate how good he is and how much talent is overflowing from him...great voice and phrasing, great songwriter, funny, and of course, the "stuntman" of acoustic guitar...

i don't know why this guy doesn't get more love on TGP.

Because he doesn't play electric guitar would be my guess.

Dude is a phenomenal player & a great songwriter.

His version of "Litte Wing" on YouTube is jaw dropping.



One of the coolest "acoustic" player's I've ever seen!

Yes, I liked him best without his band. Not that they are not good, but he slows down for them. ...and he's funny between sets handling the audience.

Check him out on Live from Daryl's House (on the web). GREAT episode. Him and T-Bone (RIP) were just a gettin' after it on acoustics.
